What’s neW
Read the short story about COVID19.

THE STORY OF COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic was announced on 11 March 2020 by the World


Health Organization, marking a turning point for the public health systems serving
the health of constituent populations across the globe. This declaration moment is
important for narrative on COVID-19 because it is the point at which it is accepted
that the virus is not only travelling to different countries, but is now circulating in
those countries. Governments are now required to take action to moderate the
impact of the infection, reducing harm for the polity until the virus – through the
mutation of its biological properties, human immunity, vaccines or some combination
of these – takes its place, we hope, among the many other microbes with which
human life has found co-existence.

14
The WHO declaration is also an important moment for the COVID-19 story
because it reveals how data about notifications of diagnosed infection and deaths are
used to make decisions and therefore reveals how, in the circumstances of a pandemic,
it is keenly apparent that numerical and narrative futures constitute each other.

Pandemics are narrated into meaningful existence and COVID-19 is no


exception. In Australia, for instance, news stories on the novel coronavirus have
escalated since January 2020 to become headlined on many broadcast and digital
news platforms. This pattern of media interest conforms to what has been seen in
previous outbreaks. Swine flu in 2009 was a significant media event that did not go
unremarked in the interviews and focus groups I and colleagues conducted with
members of the general population variously impacted by the pandemic threat.
Ebola, too, was a prominent news story in 2014 as was Zika in the run up to the
Olympics in Rio de Janeiro in 2016.

COVID-19 resembles these other outbreaks and pandemics, but the news stories
about it seem to have a distinctively numerical quality. The number of known
infections in a particular place over a period of time gives an index of the
transmissibility of an infection. Mortality rates – a measure of the proportion of people
that die with an infection – are also woven into pandemic stories, in general. But
COVID-19’s numbers seem to be its story. News feeds continually update the counts of
diagnoses and deaths, and have numerically tracked the contagion from a supposed
source in China to other countries, notably South Korea, Iran and Italy, and then to
most other parts of the world. This pandemic by numbers approach charts the
particular transmissibility and severity of this virus, but also lends itself to our
increasingly complex small-screen media diet, where numbers and graphs alongside
images and videos more easily convey the COVID-19 story than do long form narrative
texts.

COVID-19 also comes into a context where public health systems have
increasingly turned to mathematical models to make decisions about how to manage
various infections, notably HIV and influenza. Models are used to decide how to apply
resources and strategies to best effect. For example, modelling has shown how HIV can
be prevented by HIV treatments, because they reduce the likelihood of the
transmission of the virus. For influenza, models are used to calculate what proportion
of the population needs to be vaccinated to protect the whole population from an
emerging infection. These models can be adjusted to fit what is known about the
biosocial properties of a particular infection, the efficacy of treatments and vaccines,
and cost. In the case of COVID-19, for example, models may be indicating that
containment will reduce the speed and scope of transmission and therefore reduce
mortality, the burden on the health system, and ultimately the cost for governments.
COVID-19 may be a fully-fledged algorithmic pandemic in the sense that its storyline
is transparently about its numbers and because it is managed in terms of the models
that combine numerical indices of transmission, mortality, burden, and cost.

Mathematical models and narratives also have a point of contact in relation


to futures and pasts: they both offer means of trying to shape what might happen
through action in the present guided by understandings of what has happened.
Decision-makers want to know how to act now to reduce the future impact of a
pandemic and models support these decisions by analysing pre-existing data about
transmission, mortality, the benefits and costs of treatments, vaccines and
containment, for example. Modelling, then, looks to what the future might be by
assessing a pandemic’s past numbers. This is strictly true even during the course of a
particular pandemic. Narratives on pandemic futures also recall the past, for

15
example, through reference to the 1918-1919 influenza pandemic, swine flu in 2009,
and other outbreaks, and on that basis orient the narrator and their interlocutors to

possible futures. Public policy statements about containment requirements and news
media vision of empty supermarket shelves both reflect action in the present that is
predicated on pasts and aims to shape futures.

For all its life threatening, anxiety-making potential, though, the numerical
narrative on COVID-19 is surprisingly impersonal. Stories of the many lives affected by
the pandemic and the full tenor of its corporeal horrors are crowded out by
governmental advice and updating of the numbers. One reason for this separation of
pandemic knowing and lived experience is their incommensurability. Pandemics are
constituted in the sheer scale and spread of their numbers, so much so that no one
person can experience a pandemic without recourse to some signification of this
calculated, collective plight. Infections, in contrast, are visceral and personal, including
for those who devote themselves to providing care. Moreover, narrative arguably
meets its limits in the experience of an infection because, like traumatic experience,
living through a debilitating one is not an easy story to tell. Some accounts of how
people experienced the 1918-1919 pandemic remark on the lack of affect, giving the
impression that emotion was bracketed aside as irresponsible, impossible or even a
luxury.

Numerical narrative, then, may not only be one of the ways we can know a
pandemic is happening; it may provide the means of living with emerging threat. As
they say, time – and numbers – will tell how things turn out for COVID-19.

21
In the early 1800’s, the United States needed room to grow. The problem was most
people lived in the east. The cities were crowded. New land was expensive. Young
families could not afford to buy farms.
Then, as a solution, the United States government purchased land from France.
The government also acquired land from Mexico. Soon the country stretched all the
way to the Pacific Ocean. People looked to the setting sun outstretched arms and
said, “Go west.” Settlers rode in wagons and on horses. They followed long and dusty
trails across hot plains for thousand miles. There was no shelter. People slept in tents
on the ground. They had to watch out for wild animals like wolves and snakes. The
trip west could take months.
Then a railroad was built that stretched from the east coast to the west coast,
which made travel faster. More people poured into the new lands. The settlers
quickly built small towns where farming, fishing, and mining were good.

What Is It
Text Types (Different Types of Writing)

Text types in literature form the basic styles of writing. Factual texts merely seek to
inform, whereas literary texts seek to entertain or otherwise engage the reader by
using creative language and imagery. There are many aspects to literary writing,
and many ways to analyze it, but four basic categories are descriptive, narrative,
expository, and argumentative.

Descriptive text type


Description is used in all forms of writing to create a vivid impression of a person,
place, object or event e.g. to:

• describe a special place and explain why it is special.


• describe the most important person in your life.

Descriptive writing is usually used to help a writer develop an aspect of their work
Examples: to create a particular mood, atmosphere or describe a place so that the
reader can create vivid pictures of characters, places, objects etc.

Description is a style of writing which can be useful for a variety of purposes:


• to engage a reader's attention
• to create characters
• to set a mood

Language
• aims to show rather than tell the reader what something/someone is like.
• relies on precisely chosen vocabulary with carefully chosen adjectives and adverbs.
• is focused and concentrates only on the aspects that add something to the main
purpose of the description.
• sensory description - what is heard, seen, smell, felt, tasted. Precise use of
adjectives, similes, metaphors to create images/pictures in the mind e.g. their noses
were met with the acrid smell of rotting flesh.
• strong development of the experience that "puts the reader there" focuses on key
details, powerful verbs and precise nouns.

Narrative text type


Based on perception in time. Narration is the telling of a story; the succession of
events is given in chronological order.

22
The basic purpose of narrative is to entertain, to gain and hold readers' interest.

Narratives sequence people/characters in time and place but differ from recounts
in that through the sequencing, the stories set up one or more problems, which
must eventually find a way to be resolved. The common structure or basic plan
of narrative text is known as the "story grammar". Although there are numerous
variations of the story grammar, the typical elements are:

• Settings — when and where the story occurs.


• Characters— the most important people or characters in the story.
• Initiating event — an action or occurrence that establishes a problem and/or goal.
• Conflicts/goal — the focal point around which the whole story is organized.
• Events — one or more attempts by the main character(s) to achieve the goal or
solve the problem.
• Resolutions — the outcome of the attempts to achieve the goal

The graphic representation of these story grammar elements is called a story


map.

Types of Narrative
There are many types of narrative. They can be imaginary, factual or a
combination of both. They may include fairy stories, mysteries, science fiction,
romances, horror stories, adventure stories, fables, myths and legends, historical
narratives, ballads, slice of life, personal experience.

Features:
• Characters with defined personalities/identities.
• Dialogue often included - tense may change to the present or the future.
• Descriptive language to create images in the reader's mind and enhance the
story.

Structure
In a Traditional Narrative the focus of the text is on a series of actions:
Orientation
(Introduction) in which the characters, setting, and time of the story are
established. Usually answers who? When? Where? E.g. Mr. Wolf went out hunting
in the forest one dark gloomy night.
Complication or problem
The complication usually involves the main character(s) (often mirroring the
complications in real life).
Resolution
There needs to be a resolution of the complication. The complication may be
resolved for better or worse/happily or unhappily. Sometimes there are a number
of complications that have to be resolved. These add and sustain interest and
suspense for the reader.

Furthermore, when there is plan for writing narrative texts, the focus should be
on the following characteristics:
• Plot: What is going to happen?
• Setting: Where will the story take place? When will the story take place?
• Characterization: Who are the main characters? What do they look like?
• Structure: How will the story begin? What will be the problem? How is the
problem going to be resolved?
• Theme: What is the theme / message the writer is attempting to communicate?

23
problem and solution - is a pattern of organization where information in
a passage is expressed as a dilemma or
concerning issue (problem) and something that
was, can be, or should be done to remedy the
issue solution).

The Discontented Pendulum


(An adaptation)
By Jane Taylor

FACE: Okay, tell me. . . who among did it?


WHEELS AND WEIGHTS [Aloud]: Surely not we!
HANDS: Don’t look at us. It’s not we either.
PENDULUM [Sheepishly]: I did it! The truth is. . . I’m tired of tick-tocking and swaying for
fifty years. I give up!
FACE [Angrily]: You lazy thing! How could you!
PENDULUM: It is easy for you, Lady Face, to set yourself above me and accuse me of
laziness.
You do nothing but look pretty and stare at people and watch all that goes on in the
kitchen.
How would you like to be in the dark closet and do nothing but wag back and forth
year after year like I do? I’m tired of my life. After thing it over last night, I figured out
how many times I have to tick while the Hour Hand just goes around once. Have you any
idea how many times that is?
MINUTE HAND [Brightly speaking up]: Forty-three thousand two hundred times!
PENDULUM: Right! And in one week, how many times must I wag?
MINUTE HAND [Thinking]: Six hundred four thousand eight hundred.
PENDULUM: Exactly! And in one year?

MINUTE HAND [Thinking harder]:. .Er-r-r. Let me think.


HOUR HAND: Take your time, dear; you can do it.

32
MINUTE HAND [Shouting]: Thirty-one million four hundred and forty-nine
thousand six hundred! Half ticks and half tocks.
There is silence. Everyone waits for the Pendulum to say whether the answer is
correct or not. And then. . .
PENDULUM: Very good, smart fellow! Now, you all see why I’m tired of
ticktocking. It’s too much to ask of anyone. So please count me out.
FACE: Mr. Pendulum, would you mind wagging six times, only six times to
please a lady?
PENDULUM: With pleasure! Here. . . tick-tock, tick-tock.
FACE: Thank you, I hope it did not tire you.
PENDULUM: Of course not. Sixty times would not tire me, nor six hundred, nor
six thousand, but when it comes to thirty-one million. . . ugh! That’s too much
to ask of anyone.
FACE: It tires you to think about all those wags, but it does not tire you to wag
one wag at a time. Isn’t that true?
PENDULUM: Yes, but thirty-one million!
FACE: You say it in a minute, but you have to do it a whole long year---winter,
summer, spring, and fall. Think about it. Nobody hurries you.
HOUR HAND: Look at it this way. Spring cannot come until you have
comfortably tick-tocked so many million more times.
MINUTE HAND: And the leaves cannot turn red in autumn, and Jack Frost
cannot appear before you give the signal.
FACE: You see. Time is in your hands and so much depends on you. Would you
rather let people down?
PENDULUM [Overjoyed]: That’s so! I’m an important person! [Jumping] Ye-
hey! You’re right! I don’t have to rush. There’s always a year’s tick-tocking. So,
all get back to work.
ALL: Yeah, back to work!

With this, the Wheels begin to turn; the Hands begin to move. Lady Face smiles
brightly and the Pendulum proudly sways back and forth---tick-tock, tick-
tock, tick-tock---as if nothing
Happened.

What I Have Learned


The meaning of unfamiliar words may be inferred through context clues such
as synonyms, antonyms, word parts and other strategies. Context clues provide
further information about a word or phrase that helps readers understand its
meaning. These clues offer insight - either directly or indirectly - into the portion
of text that's difficult to understand.

Context clues are bits of information within a text that will assist you in
decipheringthe meaning of unknown words. Since most of your knowledge of
vocabulary comes fromreading, it is important that you recognize context clues.
By becoming more aware of particular words and phrases surrounding a difficult
word, you can make logical guesses about its meaning. Let's explore various
examples of context clues to see how they work.

The following are the different types of context clues:

• Brief definition or restatement as context clues


Example: If you visit the province of Bohol, you will likely see many chocolate
hills or geological formation which are rounded natural elevation of land lower
than a mountain.
• Synonyms as context clues
Example: Today is an idyllic day - sunny, warm, and perfect for walking in the
park.
• Examples as context clues
Example: I knew Mark’s ailurophobia was in full force because he began
trembling and stuttering when he saw my cat, Ludwig, slink out from under the
bed.
• Antonyms as context clues
Mila is gregarious, unlike his brother who is quiet and shy
• Explanations as context clues
Example: I called him a nuisance because he annoyed me with his incessant line
of questioning.

Robots Cry, Too


An Adaption
As Robie entered the bookstore, his sensor noticed an attractive sign by the shelves
of greeting card. It read, “Always give your family a gift of love.” Then the labels
Mother, Father, Brother, Sister, and Friend flashed against Robie’s sensor. His
antennae dropped as he taught, “What is a loved one? What is a family? “What is
a mother, a brother, a sister, or a friend?”

Then, up came a pretty girl. She looked at some gift items at a nearby counter.
Robie’s sensor light blinked red. A human child like the girl would know about
family.
Robie boldly asked her, “Tell me, please, what is a loved one? What gifts do you
give your loved ones?”
“Sorry, but I don’t know,” came the reply. “I don’t usually give them anything.
Father, Mother, my sister Alice, and my little brother Joshua don’t except anything
from me, anyway. But perhaps, this time. . .Excuse me. I have to go.” And the
pretty girl disappeared.
Robie thought about the girl’s reply. He thought he now had an idea of the
meaning of loved one, family, and so on. But he had an errand to do and he set
about it. He delivered a box of Thank-You cards to the manager of the bookstore.
And for this, he received a hundred-peso bill. As he received the money, his sensory
light quickly flashed green. The pretty girl appeared once more. This time, the girl
went to the greeting card shelves. With her little fingers, she picked out one card
after another, read the message, and then, turned it over to see the tag price, then
she shook her head as she quickly returned each card and to the shelf. Once more,
she disappeared from Robie’s sensor.
Just then, the pretty girl reappeared. She now had with her a little box that jingled
with coins. She poured out the coins at the counter.
With a smile, the store cashier said, “Looks like you’re ready to spend your
savings.”
“Yes, I am,” the pretty girl replied. “I’ll give my family these little gifts as a sign of
my love even if they already know I love them. Exactly, eighty pesos for this comb
for Mother, a handkerchief for Father, a pencil case for my brother, and a set of
crayons for my sister.”
Hearing this, Robbie’s antennae a stood straight up. His sensor flashed purple. The
pretty girl’s family was so lucky, he thought. He rolled up to the pretty girl.
Holding out the cards, Robie pleaded, “Please accept this greeting card for you
and give the rest to your family. Tell them that a small robot loves them.”
Tears of joy rolled down Robie’s metallic eyes as he rolled out of the bookstore, his
wheels clicking noisily and merrily, perhaps the most merrily ever!

Inferring the Meaning of Unfamiliar Compound Words in Mathematics

Unfamiliar Words – words that you can read, but you don’t know what they
mean. Words which are not in your vocabulary.

Compound Words – are words which are made up of two or more words, usually
two words, which are put together to form a new meaning.

Examples of compounded words in mathematics:


• Cardinal Number – is a number or integer that indicates how many.
Cardinal means important and number refers to an element of one various
mathematical sets.

• Proper Fraction - a fraction that is less than one, with the numerator less than
the denominator.
Proper means suitable or correct and fraction is a numerical quantity that is not
a whole number

What’s More
Determine the meaning of each of these compound words through the meaning
of each of the small words. Then, check your findings against the dictionary
meaning of the word.
1. Ordinal number 6. Problem-solving
2.Square root 7. Mixed number
3. Whole number 8. Exponential form
4. Right angle 9. Improper fraction
5. Complex function 10. Even number

What I Have Learned


Remember this:
You can infer the meaning of an unfamiliar compound word or term in
Mathematics by looking into its meaning in the dictionary or by looking into the
meaning of each of the small words that make up the compound.

Home! You’re a special place


You’re where I want to wake up,
Where meals are served steaming.
Where families feast on fresh delights of the sea.
Where air is fresh and clean and pure over the sea.
Here in this big city,
Most food is either frozen or canned,
And the air is a blanket of smog.

I wish I could be back home


Where vegetables come fresh from the garden.
Where we broil fish that comes straight from the sea,
Where chicken meat hasn’t sat in a freezer for a day.

41
I wish I had a fairy’s wand to whisk me home
Where no factories and noisy cars pollute the air;
Where the silence of the night is broken
Only by the lapping of the waves on the shore,
Where fireflies, instead of electric bulbs,
Light up the night.

Home, that’s where I want to be,


And I hope someday, soon, that’s where I will be.

What I Need to Know

After going through this module, you are expected to:

Infer the speaker’s tone, mood and purpose EN5LC-IIId-2.8.1/2.8.2/2.8.3

What’s neW
Mood is the feeling you get while reading a story. This could be happiness, sadness,
darkness, anger, suspicion, loneliness, or even excitement. You can think of mood as
the atmosphere of the story.
The mood of a story can change how we identify the thesis and the characters. For
example, if we read a short story about a lovable nanny, we would expect positive
words like cheerful, loving, and caring. However, we could take that same idea of a

44
nanny and make it more of a horror story by changing the atmosphere with
aggravated, cold, and enraged. We have thesame character, but the author's message
and description is much different.

The mood or the thoughts and feelings people have when they think of that kind
of subject, is dark or unsettling. However, the writer might choose humorous
words and sentences to discuss the subject.

In literature, the tone of a literary work expresses the writer's attitude toward or
feelings about the subject matter and audience.

In literature the tone of a work relates to the choice of words an author uses.
These words might be humorous, sad, thoughtful, serious, or otherwise.

What Is It
What helped us in inferring speaker’s mood?
• through their actions and what they say

How can we tell the mood of a person or a character in a story?


• through his/her actions and utterances / statements

What’s More
Directions:Infer the mood of the person who said each sentence.
1. Today is the day I’ve been waiting for.
2. I hate you so much.
3. We won! We won the game!
4. Shiela yelled for a very big snake crawling towards her.
5. I can’t thank you enough for the help you’ve given me.

What I Have Learned


The general mood tells about emotion or feeling expressed in the paragraph or
selection. It is basically the emotion that the author wants the reader to
experience.
One effective tool in creating mood is imagery-word pictures that bring a scene
vividly to life. Each of the story’s image helps to share the experience with by
appealing to our senses of sight, touch and sound.

What I Can Do

Read each paragraph carefully then select the correct letter. Circle the letter of
your choice.

1.I have a funny classmate. He talks fast and aloud. He walks like a banana trunk
at bending from side to side. Winking his eye all the time, he makes girls laugh

1. “Oh no! I just got a bad grade on my Science quiz.”


A. “That’s the easiest class in the world” B. “I’m really sorry to hear that.”
C. “Why do you think you got a bad D. “Wow you are really not smart.”

A. “My family sees LOTS of movies!” B. “I don’t really care. Movies are boring.”
C. “That movie is for babies!” D. “Did you like it? I heard it was
amazing!”

What Is It
It is important to stay on topic so everyone can follow along and participate. If
the topic of conversation changes too many times or too quickly, the conversation
becomes difficult to follow. Through reading the social cues like body language and
facial expressions, one can be guided and will be reminded to remain on the topic.

Staying on topic is important if you want to have a successful conversation. Sometimes


we’re not interested, but being a good friend means that we talk about things our
friend likes, and by listening to understand, we make the other person feel heard and
valued.

A great way to participate in a conversation and to stay on topic is to ask questions.


Emphasize that this helps them learn more about the current topic. Students can
practice the self-talk statement, “I will stay on topic and get more information about it
by asking questions” to help with this.

What Is It
The first thing we should remember when linking comments to the remarks of others
is to stay on the topic. We can stay on topic once we do non-violent communications
and read body languages or facial expressions, these are indirect remarks or social
cues from other people or apart from ourselves. Through these, one can assure to link
their comments and stay on topic successfully.
Nonviolent Communication (abbreviated NVC, also called
Compassionate Communication or Collaborative Communication) is an approach
to nonviolent living developed by Marshall Rosenberg beginning in the 1960s.
... NVC is taught as a process of interpersonal communication designed to improve
compassionate connection to others.

54
Non-violent communication (NVC) contains four basic components: Observations,
Feelings, Needs/Values, and Requests (referred to as OFNR). They are used when
empathizing with our self and others, or in sharing our honest self-expression.

Social cues are verbal or non-verbal signals expressed through the face, body, voice,
motion and guide conversations as well as other social interactions by influencing our
impressions of and responses to others.

NVC and social cues are indirect remarks of others. Reading or knowing these will help
us link our comments properly.

Different types of visual aids

There are many different types of visual aids. The following advice will help you
make the most of those most commonly used
.
PowerPoint (or equivalent)
Microsoft PowerPoint is probably now the most commonly used form of visual aid.
Used well, it can really help you in your presentation; used badly, however, it can
have the opposite effect. The general principles are:

Overhead projector slides/transparencies


Overhead projector slides/transparencies are displayed on the overhead projector
(OHP) - a very useful tool found in most lecture and seminar rooms. The OHP
projects and enlarges your slides onto a screen or wall without requiring the lights to
be dimmed.

White or black board


White or black boards can be very useful to help explain the sequence of ideas or
routines, particularly in the sciences. Use them to clarify your title or to record your
key points as you introduce your presentation (this will give you a fixed list to help
you recap as you go along).

Paper handouts
Handouts are incredibly useful. Use a handout if your information is too detailed to
fit on a slide or if you want your audience to have a full record of your findings.

Flip chart
A flip chart is a large pad of paper on a stand. It is a very useful and flexible way of
recording information during your presentation - you can even use pre-prepared
sheets for key points.

Video (DVD or VHS)


Video gives you a chance to show stimulating visual information. Use video to bring
movement, pictures and sound into your presentation. Always make sure that the
clip is directly relevant to your content. Tell your audience what to look for. Avoid
showing any more film than you need.

Artefacts or props
Sometimes it can be very useful to use artefacts or props when making a presentation
(think of the safety routine on an aeroplane when the steward shows you how to use
the safety equipment). If you bring an artefact with you, make sure that the object
can be seen and be prepared to pass it round a small group or move to different
areas of a large room to help your audience view it in detail.

What’s More
Directions: Arranged the following sentences to form a report. Follow the format below.
Classes from preschool to secondary levels will be suspended in all affected areas. Alert is
up for those living near rivers and coastal areas.

Evacuation is advised to those in the danger zone because of possible floods and landslides
due to the amount of water typhoon Pablo is set to release.

67
A powerful typhoon will be entering the Philippine Area of Responsibility on
Monday, June 15. PAGASA said, typhoon Pablo will pass through parts of Visayas
and Mindanao tomorrow at 8:00 o’clock in the morning and will possibly leave the
country on Tuesday evening. According to PAGASA, typhoon Pablo is a signal No.2
typhoon.

Children are born
Honey’s in the forest

What Is It?
Echo Reading

Echo reading is a useful methodology to help struggling readers.

Echo reading is an innovative concept in which the educator reads a phrase or


paragraph, and then the student repeats it back to the educator.

Echo reading is often called rereading, but technically there are differences between
the two.

Echo reading is usually employed for students in elementary school, and on occasion
for middle school students.

Echo reading can also be done in pairs, or even in groups of three or more at the
discretion of the teacher.

Echo reading is a form of rereading, and the teacher should not hesitate to have the
student repeat a difficult word or phrase over and over again until it is mastered.
A teacher can instruct parents on this methodology so it can be utilized in the home.
It can help a struggling student improve in several areas including:

• Confidence
• Comprehension
• Identifying unknown words
• Improving listening skills
• Proper phrasing
• Vocabulary

69
Echo Reading Steps
1) First, the teacher reads a sentence to the student. Later, as the student progresses,
the teacher can read two sentences or maybe even an entire paragraph. A properly
trained fellow student with high-level reading skills can also perform this task when
permitted.

2) The student tracks the text with her eyes. Some teachers will track the text with
their finger or permit the student to do this. Other teachers will experiment with
using a combination of both methods to see which works best with each individual
student. Either way, it is critical to the success of echo reading that the student can
clearly see all the words.

3) The student now recites the passage back to the teacher.

4) The teacher reads the next sentence.

5) The student repeats the sentence.

6) This process is repeated until the teacher feels the student is too frustrated or
fatigued.

What’s More
Directions. Read the given story. Observe accuracy rate and proper expressions in
choral echo and shadow reading.
