We call these our "Fluency Phones"!!! This was our first lesson with them! They were made out of PVC pipe (thanks to my husband, Mr. Guerrettaz). Their purpose is to allow the students an opportunity to read to themselves in a quiet voice and hear themselves loud and clear on the other end of the phone. Even when speaking in a whisper, they can hear themselves very clearly. They were very FUN for us to read with and keeps the practice of reading in the decodable books both exciting and highly motivating. I'm not sure if the class had more fun reading with the phones, or "hanging" them up when it was time for instruction. As their teacher, I'm wondering if they noticed that we read the book 3 times??? :)
Thanks for visiting! Come back to visit again soon!
