Notes de l'éditeur
Students complete tasks while teacher is busy doing small group work or conferring with individuals
Even a section in Troubleshooting about older grades
Taught in two different days, first going over how to read the words and read the pictures. On the second day, retelling is introduced as a part of reading a book. Remind students that whether you read the words, pictures, or both together, you should be thinking, talking to yourself, and making meaning. Your brain will be very busy when you are reading!
Trust – establishing positive relationships, trusting them to work independently with explicit instruction, build trust through lessons and guided practice Choice – structured but varies, after they have practiced all skills, teacher introduces student choice so they can make their own choices of activities, order that students choose day to day depends on goals, motivation, mood Community – classroom culture Sense of urgency – teach WHY they’re doing what they’re doing Stamina – start with small manageable chunks of time and practice skills, gradually building up; kids can’t naturally look at books for 20 minutes – need to work up stamina Stay out of the way – avoid reinforcement, stay out of the way and let them read PURPOSE+CHOICE=MOTIVATION
