Strategy: use pictures to figure out unknown word
Activity: “Pop it”- get used to noticing first sound of word
and identifying it.
Teacher respects all languages and says that the “main
thing” is to read regardless of the language
Ms. Coufal refers to reading strategies as “powers” that make them “Super Readers”. This
makes students excited about them and feel important.
Reading Time:
Partner reading- she has the
students sitting side by side, help each other, teacher can assess meanwhile.
Teacher reminds students of strategies they can use but they read on own.
Independent
Reading- Turn back to back
The structural change helps the students with routine and
with fulfillment of the task.
Closure- shared reading review
Ms. Coufal’s reading techniques really do make students feel
powerful and enjoy, “be pumped” about going to school and learning!
