We used our favorite scents of fall mixed into our paint to practice our sight words!
We put a fun twist on reviewing our letters and sounds today during small groups. Children took turns finding and matching the lowercase alphabet cookies with the corresponding uppercase plate while practicing the sounds together.
In this strategy, students read aloud to each other, pairing more fluent readers with less fluent readers. Children who read at the same level may be paired to reread a text that they have already read, for continued understanding and fluency work. In order to increase student fluency, readers need experience reading to and listening to other readers of all kinds. Specifically, lower-level readers benefit from strategies such as Paired Reading by listening to the reading of a higher-level reader. Reading with someone else encourages students to try reading material that may be above their usual reading level, while also building oral skills so that students are more comfortable with their reading.
