Daily 5/Literacy
Last week, we focused on accuracy
strategies that help us decode tricky
words. We worked a lot on chunking out
tricky words using spelling patterns we
know as well as flipping the sound to
check and make sure that our attempt at
a word makes sense. The pictures in a
book can often help us know whether or
not the flipped sound makes sense or if
we need to flip it the other way. (For
example, does take make sense to say
t-ay-k, or t-ak?) Based on the pictures
and what we know from the sentence
provided, we can figure out which is the
correct vowel sound.
Now that assessments are complete and
my literacy block has a set routine, I have
been working on meeting with students
one-on-one in conferences to discuss
specific goals tailored to each childs
reading needs. Each time I meet with a
student I ask them the same two
questions:
What are you working on as a
reader?
