1. I choose the book.
2. Purpose - Why do I want to read it?
3. Interest - Does it interest me?
4. Comprehend - Am I understanding what I'm reading?
5. Know - I know most of the words.
Go over these with your child to see if the books he/she is reading are actually Good Fit Books. It takes the children a while to find books that are right at their level. Be patient!!
Also this week, the children went to the computer lab each day to take a reading & math test on i-Ready. The children will be tested again in February and May to measure their progress. i-Ready is a program your child can use at home, too. It provides the children lots of practice with reading and math skills. Their log-in information will go home in their homework folders on Monday. | |
