봄 독서 동아리: El Deafo

Each session will include some reading of the book, discussion and working on reading comprehension strategies. I will first model the use of some of these strategies, such as making predictions and visualization. The majority of the sessions will be discussion-based. The key will be to have learners interact with the novel as much as possible, which will help them understand it more. 

Example of the schedule of a session:
1. Introductions
2. Making Predictions of the next chapter 
3. Read aloud one or two chapters
4. Summarize the chapter
5. Draw a picture to go with the chapter

Prior Knowledge Needed: Learners should be able to read at at least a 2nd grade level. 

My teaching style: I truly believe that students learn best when they feel comfortable and can relate to the material in some shape or form. That belief itself drives much of my instruction!
