4 ATTITUDINAL SURVEY -- KEVIN Not good..all right. I want to improve reading and writing so I will be smarter in life...gets me a bit further. Guess...don t even read it. Haven t read a book. I don t like it because its hard. I read a bit and then get my friend to read. Write to my dad...i want to continue to write to my dad.

5 SCRIBED TEXT I play football for Canberra South. I am the full back. My team has won all its games. I have scored 8 tries. The highlight for me was when we won against West Belconnen.

6 SPELLING

7 Establish that we read for meaning. Understand what we do when we read.

8 Po ka re kare a na Nga wai o Ro to ru a Whi ti a tu koe e hine Ma rino a na e E hine e Hoki mai ra Ka mate ah au i Te aroha e.

9 Reading only occurs when comprehension takes place.

10 Richmond was in dire straits against St. Kilda. The opening pair who had been stroking the ball with beautiful fluency on past occasions were both out for ducks. Once again the new ball pair had broken through. Then Smith turned on surprising pace and moving the ball off the seam beat Mazaz twice in the one over. Inverarity viciously pulled Brown into the gully but was sent retiring to the pavilion by a shooter from Cox.

11 Would this help? slips silly mid on duck

12 Comprehension does not result from knowing either how to say the words or what their dictionary meanings are. Readers need to know a great deal about cricket and about the way cricket is talked about.

13 Processing Print Why does a learner who has experience of knowledge of and interest in cricket still have difficulty reading?

14 It must have been around midnight when I drove home, and as I approached the gates of the bungalow I switched off the headlamps of the car so the beam wouldn t swing in through the window of the side bedroom and wake Harry Pope.

15 It..

16 Readers change text to reflect the information they bring to the reading situation. Good readers strive for meaning.

17 The cowboy jumped on his and rode away. pony stallion motorbike cow

18 The cowboy jumped on his and rode away. horse house

19 THE PET SHOW This is the day the pets come to school. A lamb comes to school. A cat comes to school. The mothers and fathers come to school too. They come in cars and vans. A pig comes to school. A calf comes to school. Mary comes with the calf. Penny comes with the pig. William the goat will not come.

20 Get up, William, said Michael. William will not get up. Mr. McGregor comes to school. He is the judge. The children meet Mr. McGregor. William the goat meets Mr. McGregor. Who is ready? said Mr. Jones. My pig is ready, said Penny. My calf is ready too, said Mary. William the goat is not ready, said Michael. The judge is ready. The teacher is ready. The boys and girls are ready. The pets are ready. Where is William the goat?

21 Mary s calf is first. The red ribbon is for Mary s calf, said Mr McGregor. Oh, thank you Mr. McGregor, said Mary. Penny shouted, Look at William with the red ribbon! Away went William. The boys and girls went after the goat. The teacher and the judge went after the goat. Come here, William! they shouted.

22 WHAT CAN WE DO TO ENSURE ALL READERS SUCCEED? Set children up for success reading is not a test Parents -- the best advocates for their children s literacy success Good books boys vs. girls, home readers, authors who inspire, technology Independent reading Strategies for reading unfamiliar words Promoting the love of a book sell books with a passion!!!!

23 RULES FOR PROMPTING Wait Avoid eye contact Say Read on to collect more information What do you think it might say? Does that make sense? Try that again, go back to the beginning of the sentence Avoid unnecessary interruptions Avoid taking the reader away from the text Give praise for the reading, not the reader I liked the way you

24 STRATEGIES Echo reading Shared reading Paired reading NIM

25 ROUTINES FOR READING Time 10 minutes a night Varied approaches Place Relationships Make it fun Choice
