👋Hello everyone, my name is Mr. Malcolm and I have been working with students for nearly 7 years now. I have primarily focused my time and efforts on helping students improve their reading abilities by creating reading assessments, evaluations and specialized reading passages that are targeted towards helping students improve their reading comprehension and fluency.

Learning how to read and comprehend different passages doesn't always come easily for students. Sometimes they may struggle with making an inference at a subtle clue that the author might be sharing, or maybe one of the metaphors goes straight over their head! Whatever it might be, there is always a way to take these difficult and sometimes frustrating concepts and turn them into an enjoyable learning experience!

In this Ongoing class, students will have the opportunity to read through a diverse selection of reading materials 📖 while also learning and implementing different strategies to help improve their overall reading comprehension/fluency. The strategies and stories are rather diverse and were designed and chosen specifically to help students from the 3rd, 4th and 5th grades. This will be done by implementing a mixture of the different reading materials while also incorporating the Common Core State Standards (CCSS).

Below are the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) that may be taught during the lessons.
(CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.3.1, 4.1, 5.1)
(CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.3.2, 4.2, 5.2)
(CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.3.3, 4.3, 5.3)
(CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.3.4, 4.4, 5.4)
(CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.3.5, 4.5, 5.5)
(CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.3.6, 4.6, 5.6)
(CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.3.7, 4.7, 5.7)
(CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.3.9, 4.9, 5.9)

During each of the lessons, students will be encouraged to read out loud, ask questions, share their ideas and engage in thought-provoking discussions. They will also be asked targeted retention and discussion-based questions throughout the lesson to help guide the students to a better and more in-depth understanding of what is being read.

While students are reading the passages they will also be able to work on their overall reading fluency. During each of the lessons, I am planning to guide and assist the students to help them improve their pronunciation, speed and expression. I also desire to utilize those situations as instructional opportunities to help the students work together to identify the meaning of an unknown word, consider the intentions of the author or see if there are any parts of the story that some of the students may not understand.
