Teaching Point: Reading is Thinking! What is reading? Ways Readers Respond… Reading means you have a busy brain. You should always be thinking about your book! If you “tune out” while reading, back up and reread. Watch as I model thinking with chapter 1 of Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing. Make predictions Make connections (T-S, T-T, T-W) Analyze the character’s thoughts, feelings, actions Use clues to figure out things that the author doesn’t directly tell you. Write your reactions. ( I was surprised when, I felt bad for the main character when, I was excited for the character because…

Teaching Point: Readers choose books that are just right! Remember Goldilocks and make sure your book is just right!

The Five Finger Trick

Teaching Point: Readers make sure they have a balanced reading diet. A Healthy Eating Diet is Balanced! A Healthy Reading Diet is Balanced too!

Teaching Point: Readers enjoy their books. They don’t pretend to read.

Teaching Point: Readers need to filter out distractions as they read. Interacting voice Reciting voice You ask questions as you read, connect, think You hear a narrator reading the story in your mind Distracting voice You are thinking of something else instead of the story. 

Teaching Point: Your brain is busy when you read! Reading gives your brain a workout! When you read each day, your brain becomes stronger and you learn new vocabulary. Look at the chart of your brain that your teacher is going to share with you to learn more about what a busy reading brain looks like!

Teaching Point: Readers commit to their books. Readers should read one chapter book at a time. Readers can have a book “on deck” for when they finish the book they are reader. Readers only abandon books once in a while. Readers should have a neat book bin: *notebook *one-two books: the one you are reading and”on deck” book * maybe a look book or magazine for warm up *Reading folder *bookmark *pencil Readers always check in their books when finished and check out new books. They don’t just put books back on the shelf and grab another. They do this during warm up, not IDR.

Teaching Point: Readers only abandon books once in a while. Why Reader’s Abandon Books… *Too easy or difficult *Boring-not interested *Don’t like the genre *The action is too slow to start *The book is not like others by this author you enjoyed *Don’t like the characters *Don’t like the point of view or plot READER’S SHOULD ONLY ABANDON BOOKS ONCE IN A WHILE!

Teaching Point: Readers expect nonfiction books to work differently from fiction books.

Teaching Point: Readers try to read a variety of genres so their reading diet is balanced.

Teaching Point: Readers think about their interests before they book shop. What TOPICS interest you? (rocks, animals, fantasy, history…) What GENRES do you like? Do you have a favorite AUTHOR or SERIES?

Teaching Point: Readers have strategies for figuring out tricky words. Discuss Unlocking Words posters. Distribute to students!

Teaching Point: Readers have strategies for reading fluently. Read in phrases Use punctuation to read expressively. Change your voice to high/low and fast/slow. If you mess up, back up. Dialogue-read in character voice and raise pitch of voice. Lower pitch of voice for narration. Emphasize key words. Ex. I am very surprised you ate that soup.

Teaching Point: When punctuation takes a vacation, what we are reading and writing does not make sense!
