This is a reason to read it out loud. Reading difficulties are going undiagnosed because teachers seldom hear students read, especially past the first couple years. Even in the more advanced tracks (ability levels), many students are unable to smoothly read with proper phrasing.

It really is torture to listen to some people read.




That's my point: don't use Shakespeare for that. Use something simple and agreeable, even if you read it in a terrible way. Read video game news, celebrity gossip, science development, sport results, etc.


I never thought about reading out loud as a diagnostic method. Dang.
