Reading Workshop Strategies Reading Workshop is a powerful way to structure your reading class. Using this model involves encouraging your students to choose their own books as well as providing significant amounts of time for them to read independently. By allowing your students to choose their own books, you can foster a love of reading that will last a lifetime. Research shows that when children spend more time reading, they become better readers.

EN LÄSANDE KLASS Daily 5 - The Daily Cafe - The Daily Cafe The Daily 5™ is a framework for structuring literacy time so students develop lifelong habits of reading, writing, and working independently. The second edition was released in spring 2014. How does it work? Students select from five authentic reading and writing choices, working independently toward personalized goals, while the teacher meets individual needs through whole-group and small-group instruction, as well as one-on-one conferring. These choices include Read to Self, Work on Writing, Read to Someone, Listen to Reading, and Word Work. Teachers tell us their Daily 5 classrooms produce productive, highly engaged students who are developing a true love of literacy. The benefits of The Daily 5 for teachers and schools include the following: The CAFE System is how The Sisters, and teachers all over the world, deliver instruction within The Daily 5 framework.

Educational Leadership:What Students Need to Learn:What At-Risk Readers Need Richard L. Allington Although Congress can share the blame for creating the education system we now see in almost every U.S. school, we should also recognize that in 2004, Congress provided educators with an option that just might help us undo some of the mistakes of the past and close the current reading achievement gap: the Response to Intervention (RTI) initiative. The legislation and accompanying regulations have a dual focus: (1) to provide increasingly intensive expert reading instruction to ensure that students having difficulty learning to read are not simply getting too little or too inexpert reading instruction; and (2) to locate students who exhibit difficulties even after receiving intensive reading instruction (Johnston, in press), who will now be identified as students with learning disabilities. Although the federal law doesn't mention tiers of instruction, a three-tiered model has become the most common form in RTI initiatives. When Must We Begin? What Doesn't Work Ehri, L.
Responding to Reading with Graphic Organizers The last few weeks of school I found myself wrapping up our new reading series with the students, and applying all of the skills we had learned throughout the year. Our last unit was heavy on non-fiction text, so I was combing through my brain thinking of new and different ways to respond....when on my doorstep appeared Laura Candler's new book,Laura Candler's Graphic Organizers for Reading: Teaching Tools Aligned with the Common Core. It showed up just in time to save the day! Let me preface this by saying that Laura did send the book to me, but my review is in no way clouded by that. As I browsed through the book, there were quite a few of these organizers that caught my eye...mostly because they DIDN'T NEED COPIES to use! This is an Informational Text Response page (perfect for my non-fiction text about Hot Air Balloons we were reading that week!) Another one I used with this specific story was this text feature organizer. Finally, I want to share this GEM with you.
Bokomslag på bloggen – vad får man publicera? Hur är det egentligen med upphovsrätten på bokomslag? Får man publicera ett bokomslag hur man vill på sin blogg? Webbstjärnan har undersökt saken och svaren är många. Efter supportsamtal med en lärare som driver en bokblogg visar det sig att samtliga förlag nedan tillåtit henne att publicera bokomslag i samband med bokrecension. För säkerhets skull: dubbelkolla genom att skicka ett mejl eller slå en pling till berört förlag. Vi på Webbstjärnan har märkt att det är många bidrag som innehåller bokrecensioner, och i vissa fall är de rena bokbloggar. Vi började fundera på hur det ligger till med upphovsrätten till de bokomslag som ofta publiceras i samband med bokrecensioner. Enligt Norstedts förlagsgrupp (där bland annat Rabén & Sjögren ingår) är det fritt fram att publicera deras bokomslag på sin sajt utan att be om tillstånd, så länge omslaget ”återges i anslutning till en recension”. Bonnierförlagens böcker är det lite knepigare med. Vi vet att det här låter knepigt.
1000s FREE Primary Teaching Resources & Printables - EYFS, KS1 and KS2 When Time isn't the Only Thing For 20 years, my speeches and writing have been heavily oriented towards time--amount of instruction. I have made a big deal that schools with longer school days tend to do better as do countries with longer school years; that summer school programs increase achievement as do many after school programs; that snow days lower school achievement, as do student absences; that extended school years and all-day kindergartens work; that classrooms differ in how much instruction they provide and that these differences are related to student learning, and that guiding teachers to use time better improves achievement. A policymaker recently pointed out to me that increases in time don't always work. Specifically, studies of the NCLB-required after school programs show few learning gains. Or, the Reading First evaluation: RF teachers increased literacy teaching by about 10 minutes per day, but their kids did no better in comprehension. Have I been wrong about time?
Lästräning lika viktigt som idrottsträning LitteraturMagazinet Debatt För en sådär hundra år sedan kom folkrörelserna igång. Man skulle sluta dricka, börja läsa och ut och idrotta. Så här ett sekel senare, känns det som idrottsrörelsen har lyckats bäst. Alla rör på sig. Och de som inte rör på sig, går med en gnagande känsla av att de borde. Jag läste om ett antal storchefer i Sverige. Till och med skoltrötta skejtare gör sina invecklade flippar tills de sitter [...] Och en sak tycks alla vara övertygade om: Träning ger färdighet. Men hur gör vi med läsning? Plötsligt börjar barnen skriva bokstäver, sitt namn, läsa på skyltar. det finns en tydlig koppling mellan läsförståelse och resultat i de allra flesta skolämnen" Idag är de flesta forskare överens om att det finns en tydlig koppling mellan läsförståelse och resultat i de allra flesta skolämnen.
