The Daily 5: *Read to Self *Work on Writing *Read to Someone *Listen to Reading *Word Work
Key terms: *Comprehension: Understanding what you read. *Fluency: The way your reading sounds. To read fluently means that there is expression in the reader’s voice. *Decode: Reading words accurately. Strategies such as chunking and sounding out helps to decode words accurately. *“Just Right” level or “Good Fit” book: Each student reads at an individual reading level. When children read books that are “just right” they grow faster as they are engaging in real reading rather than reading that is too difficult or too easy.
