Example:
Motivating Students for Silent Reading
|
| Mrs.
L.: |
I
like the selections you made, Molly. That's one of my favorite Polk
Street School books. Have you started it yet? |
| |
| Molly: |
No.
|
| |
| Mrs.
L.: |
Give it a try.
If the words seem too frustrating, you may want to read one of the
other books you selected today and save this Polk Street
book for later in the year.
Tori, see if
you can see any special hints on some of the pages of Jamberry.
I noticed some of the animals kind of lead the reader into the next
page.
|
| |
| Tori: |
O.K.
The words in Jamberry are pretty easy. I'm reading it because
I want to practice reading it with a beat. |
| |
| Mrs.
L.: |
Sounds
like a great idea. Jack, you really love the Boxcar Children
books, don't you? |
| |
| Jack: |
Yes,
my Mom and Dad have been reading one to me before bed, too. |
| |
| Mrs.
L.: |
Mysteries
are one of my favorite kinds of books to read... Collin, you should
choose one more book. The ones you chose may not keep you happy during
the entire silent reading time. Yesterday for silent reading I read
Henry and Mudge Take the Big Test. You like dog books, do you
want to give this one a try today? |
| |
| Collin: |
Sure.
|
| |
| Mrs.
L.: |
How
about if I read a page of your Henry and Mudge book to the class before
lunch... |
