Read to self

We have started our Daily 5 structure in our classroom! Each child received a book box and it contained several books to read independently. If you would like to send in some books for your child to read at this time, you may do so. It is recommended to have books that your child is interested in. The goal for this time is to help your child be a better reader and to make reading a fun and important  part of their daily lives.

We have discussed 3 ways to read a book:

  1. read the pictures
  2. read the words
  3. retell the story

We have also developed an I-chart that discusses their roles as a reader as well as the teacher.
