Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Although reading to the children in a low voice and slowly can be beneficial, it is not a strategy that actively involves the children in the reading process.

Answer: A, B, C
 All three of these suggestions actively involve the children in the reading process and provide multisensory approaches to learning. Letter cubes allow for tactile exploration and manipulation of sounds and letters. Colorful, high-interest pictures can help engage children and provide visual cues for understanding the text. Acting out the words can provide kinesthetic and proprioceptive feedback to reinforce learning.
