The result is often a piece that fascinates us because of how the writer moves between conflicting elements. Hybrid writers mix fact and fiction; poetry and prose; memoir and history; biography and memoir.
Echo Reading is a strategy teachers use to model oral reading. The teacher reads a line of a story or passage and the student echoes it using the same phrasing and tone. It helps the student focus on the print and helps the reader to read more fluently.
Generally speaking, the flatter a line is, the better the speaker will sound. The Echo has much stronger response between 300 and 1400 Hz, which is where most of the sounds of human voices reside. A few other performance characteristics are worth noting. For starters, in our tests the Echo played +4.5 dB louder than the Home. In a bedroom or kitchen, such a difference probably doesnât matter, but in a very large living room the Home might not sound loud enough. The Echo is a true omnidirectional speaker, too, so it will more easily fill a large space with sound.
