US Grade 5th grade

In this ongoing course, we will practice our reading comprehension skills. Approximately 24 hours before our scheduled class time, a short story or nonfiction passage and worksheet will be posted in the classroom for learners to DOWNLOAD and PRINT. Please bring these sheets to class. We will read  together, find the important details in the passage, answer questions and write a short passage about what we read. Learners should already be able to read paragraphs independently for this class....

Learners will be able to show that they understand the content of the passages read.

I have been an instructional assistant for the past seven years leading one on one and small group reading intervention and  classroom small group activities in grades kinder- 6th. I am also an elementary school substitute teacher. I am also an English tutor online for  children in China.

Learners who were unable to finish the writing portion during the allotted class time are encouraged to complete their work after class. Learners can also reread the story on their own to practice fluency.

Learners should DOWNLOAD and PRINT the reading passage and bring it to class. The passage will be posted in the classroom approximately 24 hours before the scheduled class time. Learners should also bring a pencil and eraser.

25 minutes per week in class, and an estimated 0 - 1 hours per week outside of class.
