By the way, what was the book you checked out called?<BR/><BR/>Reading poetry outloud definitely does help you understand sometimes ;), as well as bring the words off the page.eliasboudinotismyfriendhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15618570160339809089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32145813.post-4325733621408789582008-04-12T12:14:00.000-05:002008-04-12T12:14:00.000-05:002008-04-12T12:14:00.000-05:00Anna, it helps me to concentrate and really focus on what I read. I find that I retain more by reading aloud. But yes, my voice can get tired!Ellahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12361895789616410614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32145813.post-78697840871533418052008-04-12T07:03:00.000-05:002008-04-12T07:03:00.000-05:002008-04-12T07:03:00.000-05:00Yes, I love reading poetry aloud.

I don't know if I could do that - my voice would get tired! I suppose you really remember what you read that way, though. Oh yes, I remember when Anne recites that poem! Pretty funny. =)Anna Naomihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07594554739626607165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32145813.post-78627645722584506342008-04-11T17:00:00.000-05:002008-04-11T17:00:00.000-05:002008-04-11T17:00:00.000-05:00I always read most books aloud! I love it that way!! I can't remember who wrote the poem, but I want to go and re-read "The Lady of Shallot." But I won't act it out as Anne does!Ellahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12361895789616410614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32145813.post-34348779875853099442008-04-11T15:19:00.000-05:002008-04-11T15:19:00.000-05:002008-04-11T15:19:00.000-05:00Ooo...
