By downloading and printing the items below, you can try an entire week-long lesson. The sample lesson is from Level B, appropriate for grades 1-2. While Text Talk includes many unique read-aloud titles, for the purposes of this free sampler we have chosen a read-aloud book you are likely to have in your classroom or school library: Ruby the Copycat. (If not, we've included a link for purchasing this title on our Teacher Store
.) Experience the power of the teacher talk on the printable Text Talk Notes and the direct vocabulary instruction included in the Text Talk lesson plan!
