Reading Workshop: "The Literacy Lounge"
Components include...
Shared Reading 10:45-11:15
I intend to use a bulletin
board called "The FACE of a Reader." It is a list of
Fluency, Accuracy, Comprehension, and Extended Vocabulary
Strategies.
My shared reading lessons will
focus on these strategies.

Independent Reading
11:15-11:45
When students have Independent Reading,
students read just right books from their book boxes. Students
take their book box and find a book nook around the room. While
students are having Independent Reading I will pull flexible
reading groups based on reading strategies and skills.
|
Flexible Reading Groups
11:15-11:45
I am no longer having Guided
Reading groups in my classroom, instead I have shifted to
flexible reading groups based on the reading strategies and
skills that each child needs to focus on. I will get this
information from administering the DRA2 in October, January, and
May. |
Rotations
11:45-12:45
Students will have
three rotations during the Literacy Lounge. Buddy Reading, Word Study and Writing
Station. There will be a computer schedule and each child will
have a 20 minute block each read to listen to books online and
take quizzes using the
Raz-Kids
website. While students are rotating, I
will pick individual students to have reading conferences with.
| Buddy Reading |
Word Study |
Writing Station |
|
When students buddy read, partners take
their book boxes and read just-right books together.
Students are carefully taught to check for understanding
when partner reading. This helps us improve our
comprehension.
|
When students work on Word Study, they will be working
with their weekly word sort. After they practice sorting
their words/pictures. They will have several other word
study stations they can work with. |
When students work on Writing, they will have many
activities to choose from such as: free write, letter
writing, writing calendars and writing workstations.
