Long/ Short vowel strategy: Readers figure out tricky words by trying different pronunciations. There was a huge animal in the back yard! Huge h / u / ge [ Short u – as in up] Huge h / u / ge [ Long u – as in blue] NB.

Expression • Using the voice for characters • Sounding like a storyteller • Creating excitement and atmosphere
Most importantly – Good Readers are active readers!Checking and Self Correcting • Rereadto keep story flowing • Read on to get more clues • Checking sounds match an attempt at a word • Going back and working on word as soon as aware of error
