Wow, have we been reading!!! This afternoon the kids passed 300 AR tests!! We have completed 302 AR Tests as independant readers with 96.5% correct!! On Monday we will discuss how we would like to CELEBRATE this accomplishment!
Right now I am having the kids work a lot on fluency and expression. When we have our reader of the day we talk about fluency and expression. Do the words flow together at a rate we understand. Make sure you have practiced your book many times so you can make the words flow with expression to keep your audience interested.
Through the Daily 5 and CAFE Menu we have introduced 2 reading strategies: Check for Understanding and Cross-Checking. These strategies are being modeled and practiced through Guided Reading Books, AR Books, and the Daily 5.
