The class is structured to include a combination of direct instruction, guided practice, and independent reading activities. Each session will typically begin with a brief review or introduction to the day's topic. This will be followed by interactive discussions, guided reading exercises, small group activities, and individual reading tasks. 

My teaching methods will include a blend of teacher-led instruction, collaborative learning, and student-centered activities. I will use various instructional strategies such as think-alouds, modeling, questioning techniques, graphic organizers, and hands-on activities to engage students and deepen their understanding of the topics.

My teaching style will be supportive and inclusive. I will encourage active participation, critical thinking, and reflection among students. I aim to  foster a positive learning environment where students feel comfortable expressing their thoughts, asking questions, and exploring different interpretations of texts.

Students will have many opportunities to interact with me through class discussions, group activities, and feedback sessions. I will encourage open communication and provide personalized guidance to support students in mastering reading strategies and skills.
