In this class, we will read a book once a week, and discuss the appropriate comprehension strategies for that text. Students will be encouraging to share feedback and responses to text, and learn to think and respond like a reader. Having these group conversations and sharing opinions will build a love for reading along with increases a students' ability to articulate thoughts and opinions. I will begin the class by introducing the book, and building interest in the text. I will then give a short lesson to discuss the main comprehension skill that we will focus on, and then while I am reading, I will be stopping to ask questions. I will end the class by asking students' opinion of the text. 2/23 - We will read The Smart Cookie and we will look at the plot elements of the text as well as make connections to the text. 3/1 - We will read The Sour Grape, and we will discuss how to use context clues to determine the meaning of words in context.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Texas Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
I have taught first grade for 6 years. I am dyslexia certified. I have a master’s degree in literacy.
Teaching children how to read is my passion. I believe making learning fun and building a love for learning. My goal is for my students to increase their confidence and become more willing to take risks in order to learn from their mistakes. I believe the greatest thing we can do for a child is help them grow a passion and excitement for learning.
When I’m not teaching, you can find me on a beach or hanging out with my 2 dogs!
