US Grade 2 - 3
In this class, students will read a new passage every week and practice their reading comprehension skills through discussion of the text. I will review multiple comprehension skills (context clues, author's purpose, text features, main idea, inferencing, synonyms & antonyms, etc.) during this class. Each new passage will not connect to any other passages we have read. Please feel free to come and go as you please!
Our classes will generally look like this:
1. Greeting/Introduction: Students will have a quick get-to-know-you activity in order to get comfortable with one another.
2. Test-Taking Strategy: Go over reading passage expectations and dissect the meaning of each comprehension question.
3. 1st Read-Aloud: The teacher will read aloud the passage while the students follow along. The teacher will model strategies as she reads. At this time, (if the child is comfortable) students are given the opportunity to read a paragraph allowed.
4. Multiple Choice Questions: Students will answer multiple-choice questions about the passage they read in class. Questions will be reviewed in class.
Before class, the students will be provided with a printable version of the passage and questions along with a copy of the reading strategy.
Schedule of class reading topics: Each passage has been written by Jordan Terry.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Texas Teaching Certificate
Hi! My name is Jordan and my purpose in life is to teach! With eight years of elementary teaching experience, coupled with my passion and dedication to provide diverse students with an individualized and collaborative learning environment, I am confident in my ability to provide positive and valuable lessons.
Certifications: Certified Academic Language Therapist (CALT), Early childhood - 6th grade teaching certification, ESL certification, BA in Elementary Education, Masters in Special Education
My life has always revolved around education. I was practically born in the classroom. With my mother being a teacher, I was able to see how passionate she was about the job. Every day I would hear about how she impacted someone's life and I knew that was what I wanted to do one day. During the summer I would assist her in summer camps. On weekends I would babysit. In college I tutored at an elementary school. There was no doubt that working with children filled my cup!
I believe that learning should be fun and exciting! If I am not having fun than the learner isn't enjoying my lesson. My goal is for the student to learn the material without even realizing that they are learning.
"Every child deserves a champion --an adult who will never give up on them, who understands the power of connection and insists that they become the best that they can possibly be.” -Rita F. PiersonReviews
