You are creating a
tape which you can use with your students. Therefore, you will want
to create as clear a sound recording as possible.
Look at the rubric for read-a-loud tapes -- and the various areas
which will be graded.
1. Mark the tape cassette
container with:
-book title
-book author
2. Mark the TAPE with name of book/author
3. Before you turn the tape recorder on,
PRACTICE/PRACTICE/PRACTICE!!!
4. Open the reading by stating your name, and the name of the book
being read.
When you do this tape, be clear to give
-full title
-author
-illustrator
-publisher/date
Say a little something about why you wanted to read this
particular book
and invite the reader in!
5. Something else to add might be any special things about the book
for
the student to notice -- i.e., dedication, glossary at the back,
endpages,
design/layout of page etc. etc.
6. Read loud enough to be heard, but without shouting. Playback
will let
you know if your volume
is adequate.
7. If you stumble, start again. Be certain that you read EVERY
word that
is on the page; some students may be finger pointing and need
the exact
correspondence to work!
8. Finally, get a zip-loc bag which will hold your book and
the tape.
Or any other sturdy case you can devise.... Books on tape are
generally
housed in a plastic hanging case, with book inside.
