Reading Aloud with Children Who Are Deaf and Hard of Hearing: A Survey of Teachers Working in State Schools for the Deaf.

Analysis of survey responses of 57 teachers of the deaf (preschool-grade 4) concerning their practices of reading aloud to children found that teachers spent more time reading aloud for pleasure than for content and that they used such techniques as discussing characters, setting, and vocabulary to mediate the text for students before, during, and after a read-aloud session.
