Welcome Students! As a first grade teacher for over 25 years, there is nothing I find more rewarding than helping my littles reach their academic goals. I live for those "lightbulb moments" and structure each lesson with that as my goal for all students. In this reading and writing class, students will meet two times each week for 50 minute sessions over 4 weeks. Reading will include high frequency word practice, vocabulary building, picture walks, and a daily reading strategy focus to build comprehension and fluency. Each reading lesson will end with a writing extension activity. Reading and Writing Focus Lessons: (DRA Level 3-6) Lesson 1 "Favorite Things" Reading Strategy- Summarize Writing Prompt- What do you like to do with a friend? Lesson 2 "Grandpa" Reading Strategy- Predict/Infer Writing Prompt- What can a grandpa do? Lesson 3 "School" Reading Strategy- Monitor/Clarify Writing Prompt- What is something funny that happened to you in school? Lesson 4 "Firehouse" Reading Strategy- Question Writing Prompt- Draw your own firehouse. Tell about the things in your firehouse. Lesson 5 "Trains" Reading Strategy- Analyze/Evaluate Writing Prompt- What things can a train carry? Lesson 6 "Reading" Reading Strategy- Summarize Writing Prompt- Tell about a place you like to read every day. Lesson 7 "Animal Talk" Reading Strategy- Predict/Infer Writing Prompt- What sounds do animals make? Lesson 8 "Music" Reading Strategy- Analyze/Evaluate Writing Prompt- What will you do after class today?
