I try to schedule time each day to work on an emergent reader with my class (Kindergarten).
We do the lesson whole group.
It is much like a shared reading and guided reading lesson.
The sign above is an anchor chart we have hanging in our room.
Key components of our lessons could include:
-
Activate Prior Knowledge
-
Word Work
-
Sight Word Identification
-
Punctuation Identification
-
Coloring
-
Meeting with Pull-Out Group(s) While rest of class Colors
-
Browsing Boxes When Finished
-
Share Time to Reflect on new Knowledge or Things we Noticed
