Deanna Jump Guided Reading Strategies Chunky Monkey

For this week, one major focus is to brainstorm teaching reading strategies.  Although I have readers on many levels, I firmly believe that we ALL benefit from lessons about reading strategies.  I choose to do these whole group and then I
tin can have off from there every bit needed in small grouping.

Then to get this party started I take hold of a variety of post its and my reading strategy beanie babies tub.

If you want the beanies, I bought them on Amazon .

You lot can get the free reading strategies from Lori at Instruction with Love and Laughter.  She has them on her Facebook Page!

I know these piddling critters and reading strategies are nothing new, but one of our teamies had not heard of them so I am going to show them to yous just in instance you had non seen them before either!

I start with these…

And so quickly move to these…

These friends come next…

I recollect I am missing the kangaroo!  Gasp!

Look through your large books until you detect one that has a mixture of simple sight words and more hard words to endeavour the strategies on!   Nosotros volition start with this 1.

At commencement I just take ane beanie friend and we talk about how these animal friends will help us remember what to practise when we come up across words we tin can't read!  For lips the fish I show the beginning letter.  This way they can use the strategy of get your lips ready.  I movement the post it slowly to the correct.

This is a lot for i page merely this is what it volition wait like towards the finish of this calendar week when we get to this point.  The words covered are bee and buzz. Great for lips the fish, hawkeye center, or mesomorphic monkey!  The nifty affair is that you tin model using more than 1 strategy and bank check for accuracy.

A petty hint is to put the post information technology with the gummy side on the bottom and so the flap faces upwards.  Students sitting in front end of you on the carpeting can't peek up at the word. I didn't remember this until later….sigh….

Hither'south another book I pulled for this calendar week.

We are going to work on expository books this week, so this 1 will be perfect for that!

Mesomorphic monkey helped us find a chunk we know in the give-and-take brown!

 Model more than ane strategy!

Something that will come up up is that students volition judge incorrectly using lips and fish!  It's absolutely perfect when that happens considering lips the fish isn't the best strategy!  It tin can help the states sometimes, but nosotros ever need to check for accuracy!

Students volition say grass for this mystery word….

We tin can then check the sounds in the give-and-take and reread the sentence to see if our guess matches up.  If not we tin can try a different strategy.

When I want my students to see 2 strategies, sometimes I will requite them a little icon to aid.  Kickoff, stretch the sounds and then bank check the moving picture with your eagle heart to come across if it is correct!

Subsequently down the road, skippy frog comes out to play.  He is allowing students to skip the discussion stalks later on they tried 3 strategies and were unsuccessful.   I don't go along skippy post its on the book.  I make them every bit needed.  Once nosotros finish the sentence we go back and read it again to encounter if we can pop the word out with all the other words that we at present know.  I personally like this skip a word strategy considering sometimes students get stuck on a
timed test and if they just used skippy frog they could motility on and
however be successful!

Like anything else, if you finish using information technology, your students will forget and stop using it too.  Most once a calendar week, throw a judgement at your students like this ane we used in a higher place, and go along it out of context!  You don't have to do a whole big book lesson, but just a good judgement full of strategies.  Hither's the same sentence all covered up again.

What else am I teaching this week?!?!
Here's a peek!

We have been calculation to our discussion wall every week and beloved reviewing with our word wall centers!  These 4 words volition be added this week.
