Hello Families,
This week I am asking parents to keep a close eye on our new leveled home-reading program. Students need to be able to manage the different steps with our help:
1 - read the book until the reading is fluent and the recall and comprehension are strong
*a parent must sign that the book was read (and asking questions will help build comprehension success)
** this week, fill in the graphic organizer about the book, writing in full sentences and PREFERABLY in cursive writing
2 - take a comprehension quiz (given by me)
3 - make corrections to the quiz
4 - when all corrections are made, sign out a new book
Still with me? I hope so! It can be a cumbersome program to administer, but I have seen such good results I believe it is worth the effort.
Students who read through the book quickly and with good comprehension may change their books more frequently.
So, for this week:
Leveled book: to be read and graphic organizer to be completed by Friday
Math: One page per night
Thank you for all your help, and have a great week!
Kathy Napier
