English Language Arts: reading and writing
We begin with becoming familiar with the reader's/writer's workshop. Students will read various genres, read for fluency and comprehension, and develop reading strategies throughout the year. This year students will write narrative, persuasive, and expository pieces, as well as poetry. During our classroom literacy time we use a structure called The Daily 5. At the beginning, this structure helps children learn to be independent with literacy tasks. Once children are taught to build their stamina they will be engaged each day in these research-based meaningful tasks:
Read to self Work on Writing Word Work Listen to Reading Read to Someone
While the students are engaged in their literacy choices, I will be teaching small groups, so everyone receives the individual instruction they need to reach their full literacy potential.
