In this interactive reading comprehension class, students (ages 11-13) will strengthen reading and writing skills through engaging texts. Each week, students practice reading/discussions for deeper understanding, improve reading comprehension, and engage in thoughtful class discussions to develop analysis and critical thinking. Through activities, students will learn to answer plot-based and higher-order thinking questions with well-developed answers.

Currently Reading & Discussing: Save Me a Seat by Sarah Weeks and Gita Varadarajan (780L)

What will be taught:

Students will focus on improving their reading comprehension and writing skills. The class will cover key elements such as themes, character development, setting, plot structure, and argumentation techniques in non-fiction. Students will practice answering comprehension questions and developing written responses using proper writing techniques.

Class structure:

-Each class will begin with reading
-Then, I will introduce the text and comprehension questions.
-As we read the text together, students will annotate the document in real-time, identifying key details, themes, and techniques.
-After reading, we will discuss the material, analyze characters, themes, or arguments, and work through the comprehension questions, focusing on answering them in well-developed sentences.

I will model the annotation process, guiding students to identify important information in the text and encouraging them to engage actively in the discussion. Students will be able to interact with me through the Google Doc, where they can annotate, highlight, and type responses. I will provide individualized feedback on their answers and annotations, ensuring personalized support to help each student improve their skills.

Teaching style:

My teaching style is supportive, interactive, and structured. I focus on providing clear, concise instructions and creating a positive and inclusive classroom environment where every student feels comfortable sharing their ideas. I aim to make the class engaging by allowing students to participate in real-time, ask questions, and share their thoughts during discussions.

Teacher interaction:

-Discussion: Students will actively participate in class discussions about the text’s themes, characters, arguments, or plot.
-Google Docs: As I share the text, students will be able to annotate directly in the document and type responses to questions.
-Individualized feedback: I will give real-time feedback on their annotations and answers, offering personalized guidance.
-Q&A: Throughout the class, students can ask questions, and I will provide support to ensure they understand the material.

By the end of each class, students will have enhanced their reading comprehension, developed their annotating skills, and practiced writing responses to comprehension questions with stronger structure and detail!
