Read to the Teacher Tutoring

Do you love to read?  Are you learning how to read?  Is reading hard for you?  Are you having trouble comprehending what you are reading?  Do you really want to talk about a story that you've been reading?  If you answered yes to any of these questions than this is the class for you!  In this class, it's your turn to read your favorite book (or chapter from a book) to the teacher, me :)!  If you don't have a book, it's totally okay, I will provide one for you.

The structure of this class is as follows:

2-3 minutes- Discuss the book, or chapter, that will be read- make predictions, why was this book chosen, is the story fiction/non-fiction, etc.

15-20 minutes- Read the story, or chapter- discuss what is happening in the story, re-visit predictions and build comprehension.  During this time, I will also work with struggling readers on any reading skills needed (Example: sounding out words, practicing sight words, practicing letter sounds, etc.).  

2-3 minutes- Share/review what was learned about the story, new words that were learned, skills practiced, any other closing thoughts about the story (or reading), and goodbye cheers :).
