Abstract

Storybook reading is an effective tool in the classroom. It goes beyond a time of enjoyment; it can also be an ideal strategy for working in various areas and contents. It is thinking on this input of storybook reading that preschool teachers must value the practice of reading stories as a productive time in the class. It is important for educators to know the strategies used for reading story books, and applying them appropriately in the classroom, to make it a fun and educational experience for the teacher and the students. This article introduces the use of reading strategies used by the preschool teachers in some bilingual schools in Tegucigalpa. Also, the article shows the results from the observation of these reading activities. The findings of this study show how some teachers in this country use storybooks to teach English.
