Benefits of Reading Aloud

•Increases attention span- improving concentration by requiring the reader to focus on the material

• Builds vocabulary- exposing the reader to new words and phrases

• Bonding- Reading aloud helps to create strong parent- child bonds and promotes healthy brain development.

• Strengthens Fluency- improving pronunciation and fluency by allowing the reader to hear their voice and make adjustments as needed

• Improve Working Memory- Working memory significantly impacts how we develop literacy skills, and reading aloud has been shown to improve memory.
