Descriere

With help from this small-group reading manual, teachers can take the next step with new readers who are starting to gain fluid proficiency. Picking up where the 'guided reading' model leaves off, these exercises move students into small groups to deepen their understanding when reading texts. With instructional practices for newly fluent and truly fluent readers, students build reading endurance with longer picture books and move on to silent reading. The instructional focus is shifted toward reading comprehension through exercises that teach how to locate, record, retrieve, manipulate, and use information from texts. The wide variety of exercises enables teachers to measure how students respond to texts in oral, written, graphic, and three-dimensional forms. Valuable information is provided detailing the cognitive processes of emergent readers, and thorough explanations are given as to how small-group instruction works best for these learners.
