10 TIPS FOR READING ALOUD
Great Expectations brings popular picture books to life using a multi-sensory approach songs, tactile play, picture descriptions, body movement, engaged listening all designed to promote active reading experiences for children with visual impairments. Parents will learn how to describe a picture in a book, how to explore a book s visual concepts, how to play and have fun telling the whole story. Children will learn to listen carefully to words, feelings (voice), actions, scene, plots, and character development elements that they would otherwise miss by not seeing the pictures.
