Class Experience

US Grade 4 - 6
Class Experience
This 50 minute class will be taught focusing on one literacy skill for reading comprehension as well as practicing that skill with their writing. Responding to a text is something that improves with practice and exposure to texts. The reason reading and writing should be taught together is so that the reading comprehension skill is reinforced in their writing when students get a chance to practice that same reading skill right in the moment and become the author.  In this class students will see that there are many reasons for writing and that writing has different criteria.

Lesson Outline 
*read a short passage together and discuss aloud 
*answer questions orally with the group
*use the organizer that addresses a common reading comprehension skill to guide our discussions 
*use another organizer with this same skill and brainstorm ideas to practice the reading skill  
*students complete the organizer with teacher guidance and discussion 
*share out any final thoughts

Learning Goals

Reading response is a two-part activity - it involves reading comprehension and a written answer. This six week class that meets once a week to practice a common reading comprehension skill and then we use that same skill and brainstorm on an organizer to plan to write a short essay. You can subscribe for one class and cancel or keep coming back! Perfect for preparing for 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade.

Other Details

External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
Sources
Writing supplies - paper and pen or whatever works for you. I do suggest students keep their work in a single binder or notebook, so that they can review what they learned as they need to after class.
