Introduction
(10 minutes)- Gather the class together for a read-aloud.
- Model choosing the text Dragons Love Tacos from a stack of high-interest read-alouds using a think-aloud to demonstrate your process (e.g., "Which book should I choose?" "I really like books about dragons; this one looks interesting.").
- Preview the story before you read by going on a picture walk. As you move through the picture walk, share with the class what you like about the text.
- Read aloud the text.
