Forrest City, AR Grades 3-5

My Students

My students are motivated to read, but their application of skills and strategies during reading is a 'weak link in their chain.'

My students need to strengthen their thinking strategies that all proficient readers use as they read.

My students need opportunities to question, reread, look for context clues, and more in order to better understand and move through texts. I want to help my students become purposeful, active readers who are in control of their own reading comprehension.

My Project

I need to add to my repertoire of reading comprehension teaching materials. The charts would allow me to provide instruction which includes an explicit explanation of a strategy and coaching in how to apply it to texts. The activity pockets will provide my students an innovated way to respond to their reading. The use of the comprehension cards will provide immediate feedback and will be a nifty 'exit ticket' at the end of the day.

I need the reading comprehension materials to teach my students reading skills and strategies they need to become better readers.

My students will have more opportunities to apply their reading skills to to understand, interpret, enjoy, solve problems, predict outcomes, answer a specific question, form an opinion, and/or skim for facts in these materials I have requested.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
