Description
This class of Students with similar reading levels inspires children to read wildlife books while improving comprehension and learning about African animals.
While Students get exposure to reading with friends, learning about animals, and getting access to lots of great online wildlife books.
Those improving their reading skills or becoming emerging readers will work on building reading and comprehension skills to improve their reading levels. This reading tutoring session follows a guided reading model. Students will work on sight words, focus on essential comprehension skills, practice readingfamiliar and unfamiliar text, work on fluency with familiar texts.
This class is teacher led with students participating in activities such as reading books, finding words, identifying African animals. Learning pronunciations, lots of fun and exciting wildlife storybooks to read, and as the class progresses, Students will advance at their pace, read more books, and read at higher levels.
Class is structured and follows a specific pattern each class. Students will read wildlife books, interact with fellow students, read aloud, and read often. Students are asked to practice the books we read in class as well as focus on skills for the week for 30 minutes to an hour outside of class. Each class focuses on new sight words, new African animals, and a different book each week.
These books and skills do not require building on each other.Each class can be taken as a stand alone class.Sight word and skillsare derived from the book we are reading in class. As new books are read, supporting new skills, and build reading confidence.
We focus on sight word fluency, beginning and ending sounds, vowel sounds, and class reading. Students in this class should be beginning readers or readers on a K-3rd grade level.
