20. Let’s Take a Look at Karina • Focus on blending fluency practice at the word level • Example No Peeps (Sound it out in your head … say the whole word) • Instruction in reading words as whole units • Example 5 x 5 matrix • Rapid Read Words • Paired Peer Practice (Crash) * Oregon Reading First (2009)

22. What are we going to do for the kids still at the sound by sound level? • Focus on blending fluency practice at the word level. • Card 9: instruction in continuous blending of words with known sounds followed by rereading the blended words as whole words (Card 3). Oregon Reading First (2009)

25. YIKES! These kids are not accurate at the sound by sound level • Focus on accuracy instruction at the letter-sound level • 1 Minute Sound Dash • Rapid Read Sounds Oregon Reading First (2009)

26. What about the kids who are reading at the word (unit) level? • Not accurate: • Focus on accuracy instruction at the letter-sound level first and then at the blending level. Activities building fluency with known sounds ( 1 minute sound dash, rapid read sounds) then fluency reading words (No Peeps) • Accurate: • Focus on accuracy and fluency in connected text … repeated readings, partner reading. Oregon Reading First (2009)

27. Connected Text Reading • The primary goal of the lesson maps is to provide multiple opportunities for all students to practice the skills needed to read in connected text AND THEN to APPLY that practice in the connected text. • At least 20 minutes of connected text reading needs to happen everyday. • This could happen in whole group or small group within the reading block or in an additional whole group or small group time outside the reading block. Oregon Reading First (2009)

28. Partner Reading Increases the amount of time students are reading and provides a model of fluent reading. • Strategically assign partners • Allow opportunities for rereading • Text should match skills of the reader Oregon Reading First (2009)

32. Partner Reading Oregon Reading First (2009)

33. Partner Reading Looks Like Sounds Like • Partners sitting so that both can read the text • Chairs or knees touching • Eyes are on the book • Reader’s and listener’s fingers and markers following along • Refer to cue cards • Teacher dropping in and listening • Soft voices • Only your partner can hear you • Pages turning • Listener using correction procedure • Reader fixing mistake • Listener asking comprehension questions • Partners taking turns re- reading. If your partner is absent or will be late, read orally by yourself. Oregon Reading First (2009)

34. Partner Reading Stop, you made an error. That word is ____. What word? ____ Read the sentence again. Oregon Reading First (2009)

35. Partner Reading • Tell what happened first. • Tell what happened next. • Tell how the story ended. Oregon Reading First (2009)

36. Partner Reading Paragraph Shrinking (Fuchs, et al.) Steps: • Who or what is the paragraph mostly about? • Identify two or three important details about the “who” or “what”? • “Shrink” the paragraph by stating the main idea in 15 words or less. Oregon Reading First (2009)

37. Project Goals Review • Focus will continue on Kindergarten and First grade: • Kindergarten - increase student automaticity in whole word reading (by the end of kindergarten, students will read VC and CVC words as whole units) • First Grade - Provide targeted instruction, based on student need, to all strategic and intensive students. Oregon Reading First (2009)

38. Next Steps for Instruction • Kindergarten - Make sure the target sound for the week is clearly displayed as a focus in the classroom. Are teachers reviewing previously taught sounds and checking on kids individually to make sure they know all the sounds taught thus far? This is also a good time to start progress monitoring PSF and NWF. • First Grade - Kids not blending on NWF need to be addressed NOW! • Second & Third - When analyzing the ORF progress monitoring booklets, note error rate and patterns.
