Laura Robb shares 35 lessons and 45 reproducibles that make it
easier for teachers to train their students to read, talk, and
write about texts independently. She includes model lessons for
introducing the fundamentals of productive whole class, small
group, partner, turn and talk, teacher/student conversation. Other
lessons use the 6 short texts in the book to address literary
elements, text features and structures, reading strategies, and
vocabulary - all through discussion, brief writing about reading,
and an emphasis on analytical thinking.
Use these lessons to build developing readers' skill and desire to
read, read, read! This book will be your guide as you support
middle grade students who are reading two or more years below grade
level. The lessons enlarge students' vocabulary and background
knowledge and engage them in meaningful discussions and writing
about their reading. As students' reading skill and desire to read
increases, you'll watch them complete more independent reading and
ramp up their reading volume-the practice they need to improve!
Guided Practice for Reading Growth provides all you need to get
started. Laura Robb and poet David L. Harrison have collaborated to
design twenty-four powerful reading lessons using original poems
and short texts that interest your students and encourage them to
think deeply. The opening chapters offer background knowledge for
the lessons and teaching tips, then the bulk of this book consists
of lessons-with full texts and suggested videos provided. Guided
practice lessons are the instructional piece that can move
developing readers forward by building their self-confidence and
the reading expertise needed to read to learn and for pleasure.
This unique book shows you how to: * Build students' background
knowledge by watching and discussing videos. * Use the poems to
improve reading and to improve fluency through practice and
performance. * Invite students to write about their reading and
increase comprehension and recall. * Ask partners to discuss
before, during, and after reading as meaningful talk enlarges
students' analytical thinking and understanding. * Design your own
lessons for students with extra texts by David L. Harrison in the
appendix. Use this book to develop students' self-confidence and
the reading skill they require to become lifelong, joyful readers!
