Second Grade Interactive Read Aloud Lessons YEARLONG BUNDLE Printable + Digital

Read aloud lessons for the ENTIRE YEAR for SECOND GRADE! Just print and teach! DIGITAL VERSIONS FOR GOOGLE SLIDES TM INCLUDED FOR EACH STORY! Digital IRAs allow you to continue your interactive read alouds when students are distance learning from a remote location. Each month’s lessons include four read aloud units (except December) geared towards second grade RL and RI standards. Read alouds allow us to teach a broad range of standards. You will find that each week’s read aloud will cover many standards, but will focus more heavily on a specific one. This will be the standard assessed at the end of the week to provide evidence of mastery for that standard. Discussions include lots of think alouds, modeling, partner talk, and differentiation geared toward second grade students’ needs.

Each month's pack includes four read aloud units (December contains three.). Each read aloud is designed to cover five days but can be condensed to four depending on your schedule.
