  • Before we jump into our three coping strategies for this difficult season (Fall 2020) of our teaching lives, we’d like to start by giving everyone here permission: permission to feel what you feel and not apologize for feeling it.
  • Teaching young children to read is no easy feat, especially if you work with struggling readers. Shared reading offers an answer in the search for strategies and activities that boost comprehension, word attack skills, and balanced literacy development.
  • Writing longer reading responses can be an overwhelming task for young readers--well, for any readers! When readers are given a clear path about how to stop and jot about their thinking as they read independently, they will easily be able to move into writing longer about their reading thinking. Writing long off of your jots is about synthesizing the details and showing your comprehension of the text.
  • Guided reading is a staple in my classroom, but what reading strategies should I be focusing on during that time? I love this free guide for helping to determine what comprehension strategies to teach AND that it gives prompts to help guide student thinking. Perfect for Kindergarten, First Grade and Second Grade teachers!
