What to do if your child is stuck?
15
What to do if your child is stuck?
KS1 -Use phonics -What sound does it begin with? -Can you say the sounds in a word? -Blend -Read to the end of the sentence -What word would make sense? -What is the text about? -What word might fit in? -Look at the picture, does it help? KS2 -Skip the word you do not know and try to guess what word would fit best in the gap - Is there a part of the word you recognise - Can you break it into syllables?
16
Independent strategies
When I get stuck on a word in a book, There are lots of things I can do. I can do them all, please, by myself; I don't need help from you. I can look at the picture to get a hint. Or think what the story's about. I can "get my mouth ready" to say the first letter. A kind of "sounding out". I can chop up the words into smaller parts, Like on or ing or ly, Or find smaller words in compound words Like raincoat and bumblebee. I can think of a word that makes sense in that place, Guess or say "blank" and read on Until the sentence has reached its end, Then go back and try these on: "Does it make sense?" "Can we say it that way?" "Does it look right to me?" Chances are the right word will pop out like the sun In my own mind, can't you see? If I've thought of and tried out most of these things And I still do not know what to do, Then I may turn around and ask For some help to get me through.

How to use these strategies at home
John let his pet frog go. It ******across the grass. What is the first sound? It h***** across the grass. What would make sense? It hopping across the grass. Does that sound right? It hopped across the grass Peachie looked at if she had lost her ****** marrow- bone What kind of word is missing? Is it a verb? A noun? An adjective? lost her f***** marrow- bone What adjective do you know begin with f? lost her fierce marrow- bone Does that sound right? lost her friendly marrow- bone

-Being able to read does not mean you understand what you read.
Comprehension/Understanding -Being able to read does not mean you understand what you read. -Your child might sound like a good reader but may not necessarily understand what the text means. -The best way to develop understanding is to talk about texts.

Easy to read but do you understand it?
According to the previous ATA/IDE hard drive transfer protocol, the signalling way to send data was in synchronous strobe mode by using the rising edge of the strobe signal. The faster strobe rate increases EMI, which cannot be eliminated by the standard 40-pin cable used by ATA and ultra ATA. Easy to read but do you understand it?
