Modelled
Reading

What is Modelled Reading? Click here
for details.
In
"Modelled Reading” someone reads a story, book of fiction,
news article, picture book, essay, poem, or trades a book to another person.
Children
usually ask questions about the Modelled Reading selection, and these
questions lead to explanations, making connections and questions by the
reader, informal discussion skills are indirectly developed through Modelled
activities.
During
an interactive modeled-reading the teacher engages in a series of activities,
including: pre-viewing the book; asking students to make predictions and
connections to prior knowledge; stopping at purposeful moments to emphasize
story elements, ask guiding questions or focus questions; and using oral
or written response to bring closure to the selection.
Shared
Reading

What is Shared Reading? Click here
for details.
Allows
teacher to model
En-large
text read over period of days
Teacher Introduces
book (vocabulary, style etc.)
It
focuses on meaning, fun, enjoyment and sequence of story (encourage to
relate to own experiences)
Make
predictions
Spontaneous
participation (choral, drama, masking activities etc)
Guided
Reading

What is Guided Reading? Click here
for details.
Groups
with approximately 3-5 students have been created by the teacher (Ms.
Coburn).
Texts
will be carefully selected at the students’ instructional level
using a variety of text forms and genres (e.g., fiction, non-fiction,
and media). The teacher uses multiple copies of the same text.
Before
the reading, the teacher introduces the book, activates prior knowledge,
draws attention to text features and key vocabulary
Students
read the whole text or portions to themselves. Teacher may move around
and ask a student to make their reading audible as reading continues.
The
teacher listens, and observes the reader and records the reading behaviours,
supports the student’s attempts, records the needs for instruction
and provides teaching ‘points’ as appropriate
After
the reading, the students discuss the teaching point to check for understanding,
reread the text for support, and engage in responding to the text through
a variety of grade appropriate activities
Independent
Reading

What is Independent Reading? Click here
for details.
Independent
Reading is a time when students self-select and independently read appropriate
books.
Independent
Reading provides an opportunity to apply strategies that are introduced
and taught during teacher modeled reading, shared reading, and guided
reading.
The
self-selection process of Independent Reading places the responsibility
for choosing books in the hands of the student
While
students are free to choose what they like, they must be encouraged to
select a variety of literature and to select materials at their independent
reading level. Independent means 95% to 100% accuracy as defined by running
records. These materials should be able to be read without teacher support.
It is at the independent level that comprehension, vocabulary extension,
and fluency are improved.
