    Round robin reading, where students take turns reading aloud, is considered outdated by some but can still be useful for teachers. It allows the teacher to evaluate all students' reading skills out loud. While there are other methods of reading aloud, like partner reading or whole class reading, using a variety of methods is best for reading instruction. When substituting, teachers will often provide lesson plans that are easiest for a substitute, like round robin reading, as it requires little explanation and is easy to manage from a discipline standpoint compared to more creative group activities. Student embarrassment should also be considered, and teachers should use their judgment and what works best for their class.

    Round Robin reading is considered old-fashioned and "out" now but I


    believe it has its place in reading instruction. One advantage of "Round
    Robin" is that you get to hear all students read. If students are only
    reading by choice some students quietly opt not to read. It's important
    for the teacher to hear students read outloud for evaluation purposes.
    Also most of us teaching primary grades believe that students should read
    outloud, not just silently. Round robin reading is one way of doing that.
    Of course there are other ways for students to read outloud. One way is
    for students to read to each other with in partners. Part of the class or
    the whole class can read outloud together. Every method has its
    limitations. Using a variety of methods in teaching instruction is really
    best.
    Keep in mind that when you substitute teach the teacher who you are
    replacing will probably want to leave you the easiest plans possible.
    When I have a sub I often ask the person to read a story with the reading
    group together ("Round Robin".) This has to be about the easiest thing a
    person walking in cold could do with the students. Actually I do a lot
    more creative group activities with the students but some of these
    activities are not easy to explain and these acticities may make
    discipline a little more difficult for the substitute teacher.
    The issue of embarrassment is really important. Use your theories
    from school and your common sense and do what works for your students.
