Planning a Reading Programme.
My top takeaways from today's session are -
Integrate Reading Across the Subjects by including reading activities in different curriculum areas and topics or choose texts from the other curriculum areas, for example
Use
- texts to teach writing figurative language. Metaphors, Similies and Personification.
- a range of text types, for example fiction, non-fiction, visuals, videos, science articles, local purakau, historical fiction, and math-related stories.
A good tracking and monitoring system to keep everything together. It also gives the students responsibility to meet their learning expectations.
Having everything in one place will make tracking easier and more manageable.
Regular check-ins with students and Reading Tracker will help identify trends/needs to make adjustments to my programme as needed.
A great day of learning with the wonderful Manaiakalani RPI team.
My next steps are, to follow up on any adjustments to my Reading programme to move forward.
Looking forward to the next workshop.
