How do I read books with the students? (cnt’d) • Motivate your students! DON’T DO • Hold the book/read/turn the pages for them. • Encourage them to handle the book with care. • Ask them if they know the letter sounds and help them to sound out the word. • Simply tell them the words they do not know. • Get angry or impatient with them when they cannot read fluently. • Support them by pointing to pictures and giving them time!
The best Student-Teacher… • Always asks lots of questions about the story to make the student more interested in it… • Reminds the student to track the text with his/her finger… • Helps the student “decode” words by reminding him or her to sound words out, look at the picture for a clue, and think about what would make sense… • Shows a variety of expressions on his or her face and uses different intonation to ensure that the student doesn't feel bored… • Can be firm but gentle in making sure the student does not misbehave and concentrates on the task… • Encourages the student to speak using full sentences… CAN YOU DO IT?!
Helping students with worksheets… • DON’T just give them the answers! • Explain the task to them by reading aloud the instructions. • Help them to pronounce any words they have trouble with. • If they make mistakes, encourage them to re-check their work by asking “Are you sure that’s right?” • Ask questions to make them think instead of telling them the answers. • Be patient even if they are slow or need you to repeat things – just remember, you were once like them, too! • Be kind when you mark their work and give them lots of praise!
