Today 1JT practiced using the many different reading strategies they we learned this week when coming to an unknown word. Students learned that 1 strategy does not work for every word. Sometimes we have to use 2 or 3 on the same word before we figure it out.
Fluent readers use a variety of strategies to understand and figure out words (whether it is a just right book, a scientific magazine or a cookie recipe). It is important that each time they come to an unknown word they try and use the strategies they have been taught to figure them out. The strategies we worked on this week are posted below. Feel free to print out the pictures below and hang them in your house to help your child remember to use them when they are reading at home.
