Strategies relate to teach Reading Skills: 1.Build Background Knowledge 2.Teacher demonstrate/models/guides 3.Identify key words, identify the meanings of the new words 4.Think/Pair/Share—Encourage participation 5.Identify main idea and supporting details 6.Teach reading for identifying specific information “who”, “where”, “what”, “when”, “why” and “how” 7.Mapping information with graphic organizers 8.Games, Reader’s Theater, Role Play 9.Small group/partner reading projects 10. Integrate reading with writing Encouraging Elaborate Responses •Going beyond “yes” or “no” answers •“Tell me more about that…” •“What do you mean by…” •“What else…” •“How do you know?” •“Why is that important?” •“What does that remind you of?” Interaction Structures •Think-pair-share: Student share ideas with a partner •Inside-outside circle: Students mingle, students change partners •Numbered heads together: Students with the same number work together to solve a problem •Roundtable: Students in small group pass paper around, with each student providing one response •Send a problem: Students in one group prepare a problem, send it to another group for them to solve •Jigsaw: Chunking text into smaller parts. Students in each group take a part, then discuss their reading and share ideas. Reader’s Theater Example: https://youtu.be/mwox6NzXQEc ESL Online Games and Activities: www.starfall.com www.eslgamesplus.com www.eslgamesworld.com www.manythings.org www.easyworldofenglish.com www.gamestolearnenglish.com www.englishclub.com www.nickjr.com www.vocabulary.co.il/english-language-games www.funbrain.com www.duolingo.com Jenny Li PLC Facilitator Edited by JennyLi, Dec 4 2016, 04:06 PM.

Readers theater is so much fun. I think the more interactive and fun children are having, the more they are learning. Thank you. |

Especially when it comes to guided writing, I almost always have them give me key words that relate to the strategies they were using while reading (SWBS, 5 Finger Retell, etc.) We list them the day before, then refer back to them for writing. Would it be a good idea to provide some of my own key words as well as their own for writing, as long as I explain them? |

I love any way that the arts can be incorporated into learning such as reader's theatre. It is so unfortunate that many children do not have the opportunities to try out the arts and learn in this way. I also think it is important to make children elaborate on their thinking and not give one word answers like it was mentioned above. I like having kids explain their thinking and give reasoning for why they think a certain way. |

I strongly encourage elaborate responses from my students and they know that that is an expectation when they walk into the classroom. I will accept a yes or no answer but they need to explain why. This especially pertains to my gifted students who I know are capable of much more than a one word answer. I just try to make learning fun in my classroom and not make anyone feel pressured, but accepted. Paige Lee |

It's important to teach our students how to become more than "word callers" when they read. These various strategies provide fun, non-threatening ways in which we can demonstrate to our students how to find the purpose for their reading.In my experience, students typically enjoy collaborating with one another. I'm looking forward to trying out the round table strategy! |

I have been using a lot of word maps (or word webs) to assess background knowledge of certain topics. It's been a good way way to see what words or concepts a student already knows. As we go through lessons, we add on new words/concepts to our word webs. The students now have lots of words and ideas to write sentences about the given topic. |
