Children of all ages love to record themselves and hear their voices. Recently 
in my guided reading groups i have been modeling oral reading and pausing to 
think aloud the active reading strategies that come to mind; connections, 
asking myself questions etc. If you have access to ipods or recorders i 
recommend this acttivity. I assign a passage or a few pages for them to read 
and record. When we play it back and listen, i make them track with their 
finger so they can analyze miscues and hear how  they sound. It helps build 
fluency and comprehension

Lots of opportunities to turn and talk... Lots of teacher and peer modeling of 
the kinds of thinking readers do... Variety of texts so children build schema, 
attention to vocabulary development...
