With the purchase of the rug and literacy pouches I would like to implement an independent reading time within my students. Independent Reading is a time when students read and practice the reading they are learning. It is a time to enjoy books and learn new information. The teacher will confer with students one-on-one to teach strategies, discuss various aspects of the text, and learn about each student as a reader. Concepts to Teach 1. What is independent reading? 2. What is the structure of independent reading? 3. Assign spots on new reading area 4. Choosing Books and storing them in literature pouches. 5. Expectations of behavior 6. Introduce conferring 7. Introduce library – how is it organized? 8. Start to choose just right books 9. How do you take care of books 10. How do you change books 11. Keeping a log of titles and genres 12. Balancing your reading diet 13. Building stamina grades K-2 14 Readers think while they read 19. Readers talk about their thinking with other readers 20. Monitor for meaning. STOP when your reading doesn’t make. * lesson adapted from https://www.wayland.k12.ma.us/UserFiles/Servers/Server_1036352/File/Curriculum/Units%20of%20Study/Unit%20of%20study%20-%20Launching%20Independent%20Reading.pdf
