Read-alouds are a very important part of teaching reading, and a great read-aloud can make a huge difference in any classroom. I have seen student after student this year become hooked on the books we read together. My students have made connections between the books and themselves and between other books they have read. I would love to add a few more titles to my classroom sets for read-aloud purposes, with a specific goal of creating text-to-text connections. Our school will be doing a school-wide read-aloud of Refugee by Alan Gratz next year. I plan to read this collection of books (Number the Stars and Inside Out and Back Again) alongside our school-wide read aloud to give my students multiple opportunities to make text-to-text connections. Refugee tells the story of three families who are fleeing hardships in their countries. The books I have chosen are all connected to this premise and would pair well. Number the Stars describes a Jewish family's struggle to escape Denmark during World War II, which directly relates to a character in Refugee. Inside Out and Back Again tells the story of a family forced to move to the U.S. during the Vietnam War. Allowing my students to read these fantastic books alongside Refugee will provide several opportunities for comparing and contrasting throughout the year and give them good insight into an important topic in society. I can't wait to see my students read these books and learn more about the world both in the past and present.
