What are these FIRST graders doing you may ask? Well. They are collaboratively working together on making predictions AND asking Q’s in their reading today! We have a predictor job, the questioner job, a noticer position, and a clarifier. All are important parts of comprehension!

#ThoughtForTheDay There are moments when you will have to ask students to do something & times when you will have to tell them what to do. The way they respond to you will depend on the sincerity of the relationship & level of trust you’ve built with your students. #Culturize

Learned about the topic and central idea this week while hanging out in informational texts! Read, Think, Talk, Write! We used info videos (multimodal texts) first and then went into a 📚 book. I love seeing their thinking and team work. #teamworkmakesthedreamwork @vanalstyneisd

Mandatory reading logs can actually *demotivate* students from reading. These 3 strategies can help reading feel less like a chore. 📚
