During the day we have two different times for reading....small group reading and whole group reading!
Small group reading....this is a time for leveled reading. We group the students according to the phonics skills that they are needing to work. these groups change throughout the year. During this time the students are given a kiwi bag which will contain a sight word list/packet and a leveled reading book. These two items need to be worked on each night.
Whole group reading...this is a time to expose the students to skills that are on our common core standards. Examples are prediction, sequencing, visualizing, compare/contrast, etc. We do a read aloud daily with work on sight words and a fluency poem.
