Comprehension Questions that Should be Practiced Daily

Monday, March 13, 2017 No comments

Similar to LLI running/reading record comprehension questions. I always feel that my students have some difficulty with the wording of the running record questions. I have been practicing with them these questions so they better understand the language and how to answer these questions successfully. I took the most common questions that they have the most difficulty with and hung them around our classroom.  I change them depending on if the book is fiction or non-fiction.  When they finish their reread of a book, if I am still testing a student - they must answer the questions on a post it with their name and book number and put it under the questions.  We can then have friends check the answers,  use this as a discussion piece, or it allows me to see how they are doing. With this packet below that's sold on TpT,  I took four fiction and four non-fiction questions that come up most often throughout the kits and that students seem to have the most difficulty answering and put them in this packet

You will be able to upload this item and open it with Power Point. I have allowed it to be editable in case you would like to change the wording of the questions and/or add/take out questions. 

Enjoy!

Magic E Wand

Tuesday, February 14, 2017 No comments



Magic -e Wands are great when learning long vowel sounds with the silent -e at the end of words.  I love to place a bunch of CVC words on an anchor chart, or around my room for the children to go around and add their magic -e to the end of the word to write and read a new word! 
Great practice and they have fun while learning!

Please take a look at them on my TpT account if you want to download them!

In my TpT store I have both level I and level II Fundations I Can Statements!  
They are under Phonics- Foundational Skills - I Can Statements Level I  & Level II.

They are fully editable in PowerPoint so you can take away some of the skills for that unit to focus more on what you are doing on a day to day basis and to make it not look like SO much for the children to see, or keep as is.  You can change the font and colors too!

Enjoy!

Comprehension Skills & Strategies

Wednesday, November 23, 2016 No comments
Comprehension skills & strategies are the main things I teach in my reading support classroom.  I am always discussing a skill and/or strategy that can help them as a reader to better comprehend the text.   This product is editable. You may switch out the genre labels and the colors. I printed all mine out, cut and laminated together with the last page on top, "Comprehension Skills & Strategies" I then hung it on my door, got clothes pins with students numbers/names and they use as their exit ticket after reading... "What skill or strategy did you use as a reader today?" Grab it at my TpT store

Genre Labels

These genre labels can be purchased at my TpT store.  I love these because they are editable so you can change the colors, font, and words to suite your needs.  These are great to print out, laminate and place on your book bins in your classroom!  Hope you enjoy them.

Reading Graduation Certificate

Monday, November 21, 2016 No comments
With our first trimester coming to an end, we have collect data on students over the last couple of months.  Some are able to exit out of reading support, or like I like to call it, "Graduate Reading." 

I have made a reading certificate to allow the students I am exiting to see what an outstanding job they have done in reading support.  

Please look on my TpT site to purchase this certificate for yourself.  It's editable using Power Point.

Summarize

Summary Outline – TpT – Check out my teacher made worksheet on TpT for summarizing.  I use this with my little ones when learning how to figure out what happened first, next, then & last.  This is a good, basic graphic organizer before writing a paragraph.  Hope you enjoy it!

Video Shorts and Graphic Organizers

I finally finished!!!!  Please see my TpT posting on Graphic Organizers/Video Shorts to go along with it.  
Video Shorts and Graphic Organizer- Klein's Class
My 6th graders LOVE these.  Whenever I start a new comprehension strategy I always introduce it with a Pixar Video Short to go along with the strategy we will be discussing.  While they are watching the Video Short, they take notes on the graphic organizer and we discuss it in depth after.  
This really makes them look at it differently and breaks up the monotonous of just reading a passage or book and learning that strategy.  They then will know how to apply it to the different text types that we do with that strategy.  
Enjoy!

Read Across America

I made four worksheets for Read Across America, celebrating Dr. Seuss’ birthday this March!  I took four of his books:  
Mr. Brown Can Moo!  Can You? 
There’s a Wocket in my Pocket
One fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish
Green Eggs and Ham
Dr. Seuss
I took words out of the first couple of pages of each of the books and left blanks for the children to be creative and come up with their own Dr. Seuss writing to go along with the book of their choice.   This wasn’t fully my idea at all.  My wonderful partner actually came up with the idea, I just created the sheets (that you can find on my TpT store).  
Enjoy!

Evidence Based Terms

I am starting to finish up non-fiction summaries with my 6th graders.  We have been reading the passage, Lights! Camera! Invention by John James.  This passage is all about Thomas Edison and the inventions he has made.   It’s really engaging and the sixth graders love when we read this passage.  We have been discussing what goes into writing a non-fiction summary and using a graphic organizer to help us out before we begin to write.
After we finish this strategy, we will be moving on to text evidence.  I had found a great anchor chart on another blog, but re-wrote the sentences and changed some things around to my liking.  I also made my own text evidence charts to go along with it that you can find on my TpT store if you’re interested!

Lyrics for Comprehension

I have been working day and night on getting together “Lyrics for Comprehension” for my 6th graders.  I am using the common core standards so they can be combined with other lessons in the classroom that are being taught in reading.   Each song lyric has a graphic organizer and questions to go along with it.
Example of Lyrics for Comprehension
I really feel that practicing comprehension strategies through song is an amazing way to allow students to really be engaged in the lesson.  Sometimes it’s really difficult to find reading passages that are of high interest.
This packet isn’t complete yet, but once it is, I will update this post and give the link to my TpT store to be able to purchase it.  Much research has been done showing that children learn comprehension strategies through music.  Think about it – it’s no different than a poem, but it has upbeat music to go along with it to keep them engaged.  Plus, it’s different.  It’s not the ordinary, so they are always excited for some music whether they are familiar with the songs or not.
It truly is a MIX of music…
1.Somewhere Over the Rainbow/What a Wonderful World 
2.All I Want is You
3.You’ve Got a Friend in Me
4.Hall of Fame
5.Lean on Me
6.Better Together
7.Mean & Roar 
8.Forever Young
9.It Won’t Be Like This for Long 
10.Shake it Off
