The Roll and Read activity is great for increasing reading accuracy and
fluency. Students read and re-read six sentences or word sets on a sheet
prepared by the teacher. The student rolls the dice and reads the item that
corresponds with the number on the sheet. This activity can be made using
word family sets such as the "ea" pattern, vowel patterns such as the short "i",
or high frequency words. The teacher can work on the activity as a one-on-
one guided practice with the student, or students can work in pairs, taking
turns rolling the dice and reading the corresponding sentence or word. The
print and the braille on the Roll and Read sheet allow all types of learners to
participate in the activity.
Materials Needed: Braille paper, puffy
paint, and dice.
