Benefits of Talking to the Text
Benefits
Talking to the text is an effective strategy that helps the reader remember more relevent information. This happens because when we read aloud we are creating not only visual memory links but also auditory memory links. When we read aloud we often ask questions to the text causing us to think deeper into the text. Reading aloud can also cause us to focus more on the text rather than when we read in our head. Overall talking to the text can help us break down information and remember the relevent information.
