Description
Class Experience
This ongoing class will be one-on-one reading tutoring, using a novel or chapter book chosen by the learner. The main purpose will be to find a book or books the student enjoys and is excited about reading, while working on any needed skills. A few books I've read with my learners are: "Percy Jackson: The Lightning Thief," by Rick Riordan, "Jennifer Murdley's Toad" by Bruce Coville, "Smile," "Guts," and "Sisters" by Raina Telgemeier (Graphic series); and "Primer" by Jennifer Muro & Thomas...
This class is taught in English.
Learners will read for enjoyment to gain skills and become more fluent in their reading, as well as be able to identify characters, plot, setting, theme, and etc.
Students will be expected to read some of the book on their own between classes.
After a consultation, students will need to have the book(s) we have decided on.
Informal assessment
35 minutes per class, and an estimated 1 - 2 hours per week outside of class.
