Buh bye nap time
No more nap time you say?? That's right! You may think teachers enjoy this time but instead it's the complete opposite! This now means more time for whole group literacy. After recess we are coming back and unwinding by partner reading. I assign a pair of students with a leveled book and they then find a quiet spot in the room to read it together. I am teaching reading strategies prior to buddy reading to then apply as they go off on their own. This weeks strategy is using "eagle eye" this means to look at the pictures to figure out words we don't know. They are also pointing out sight words that they know. After monitoring their buddy reading I have them come back to circle to share what their book was about. This is an opportunity to synergize and build reading skills.
