This is qualitative study that deals with the subject “reading aloud” and how teachers apply it in the school environment. Reading aloud is, in this study, seen as a moment in which a teacher reads out loud to their students. It’s an activity with the aim of developing kids’ reading comprehension and ability to socialize, as well as a shared experience for all. The aim of the study was to examine how five teachers work with “reading aloud” in their classes, what the purpose behind their usage is and if they use activities in connection to it. The study is based on the theory; a sociocultural perspective and the pedagogical method “learning by doing”. I’ve used qualitative interviews as my data collection method. The sample was made up of five teachers in total, and all of them were from different elementary schools. The results show that the teachers that participated in the study had several purposes behind their usage of “reading aloud” in the classroom. The results also show that activities connected to “reading aloud” are used in different ways. The conclusion is that the aims of “reading aloud” varies and that all of the participants of the study use activities in connection to “reading aloud”.
