The discussion is off and running
Hi everyone
Im a Reading Resource Teacher but this year I asked for 3rd grade I wanted to teach where I would have 1st hand knowledge of the children.

I ususally teach 5th - 9th grade reading remediation skills.

Reading "WM" will provide additional researched based strats for my 3rd graders
I have to agree that Word Study activites are especially important for comprehension. I want to build upon my phonics skills:decoding and structual analysis training which was glossed over as a Language Arts preservice-teacher Besides

I'm a sight reader :)
I want to use her book as a springboard to increase a greater amount of strats in the content areas as well. Because I observed that my 4th gr students scores increased this spring using a 4 blocks reading framework consisting of: word study, comprehension, fluency, and writing. I lost my book yesterday. .....but!
I promise to catch up and read to contribute with questions and reflections that are worthy
Incidently I found that it is true that fluency blocks and word study blocks overlap in teaching so again I am excited to read "WM"

I wish you all a Sun Filled Day

Susan
