1 The charts below were created as a common language for teachers and students in the Wallingford Public Schools in kindergarten through eighth grade. The level of the chart selected for use in the classroom should be based on the reading levels of the students. At the fluent level, the strategies are linked to the language through the Language Arts Resource Teacher. Early Emergent Readers Note: In kindergarten these strategies would be taught as part of shared reading Guide students to identify title, author, illustrator Guide students to connect to prior knowledge by asking, What do you know about? Encourage students to become strategic readers by asking, What do good readers do? Elicit strategies at right. Set a purpose for reading The student strategies to the right will need to be introduced, modeled, and practiced for mastery in the context of reading one at a time. Our goals with early emergent focus on left-hand tracking, using picture cues, and using initial sounds. Ask students to retell what happened in the story or what the text was about. Have the student practice sequencing parts of the story in order to get the idea of beginning, middle, and end. Check the pictures Touch the print as I read Get my mouth ready
2 Emergent/Beginning Readers Cause students to become strategic readers by asking, What do successful readers do before they start to read? Elicit strategies at the right. Guide students to identify title, author, illustrator Guide students to connect to prior knowledge by asking, What do you know about? Guide students to make a prediction by asking something like, How do you think it will end? Set a purpose for reading Before starting to read, encourage students to become strategic readers by asking, What can you do to help yourself when you find a word you don t know? The student strategies to the right will need to be introduced, modeled, and practiced for mastery in the context of reading one at a time. Our goal is to have student use a balanced cueing system that includes the way words look (and sounds letters make), the syntax of the sentence (does is sound right?), and the meaning of the text. Have students reflect on the strategies they used by asking, Did anyone come to a word you didn t know? What did you do? You want to communicate that finding words we don t know is normal. We need to have and use strategies to figure out those words. Ask student to retell what happened in the story or what the text was about. Have the student practice sequencing parts of the story in order to get the idea of beginning, middle, and end. Take a picture walk Think what is this about? Make a prediction Touch the print as I read When I get stuck, I can - look at the pictures - say blank and read on - go back and read it again - get my mouth ready - find chunks I know - look for little words - blend the sounds together Try the word and ask myself, Tell what happened Who was in the story? Where did the story take place?
3 Encourage students to become strategic readers by asking, What do successful readers to before they start to read? Elicit strategies to connect to prior knowledge, make predictions, and set a purpose using the student words in the right column. Guide the students to identify text structure/genre by asking, What type of text is this? Is it a story, is it to give information, or is it a poem? Guide students to look for key words and text structure to determine what type of text it is. Awareness of text structure supports student s comprehension of a variety of texts. Immediately before starting to read, encourage students to become strategic readers by asking What can you do to help yourself when you find a word you don t know? The first two bullets of student strategies to the right have been introduced, modeled, and practiced for mastery earlier grades. We want to continue to reinforce use of a balanced cueing system that includes the way words look (and sounds letters make), the syntax of the sentence (does it sound right?), and the meaning of the text. Try a different sound is a cue to try another sound the letter might make (for example: the hard or soft sound for c, a long or short vowel.) At this level teachers need to guide students to consciously make pictures in their minds as they read. Stop students and ask them to tell you what they are thinking while they are reading. This is part of guiding students to recognize when they are not comprehending. Many students have to be taught to stop when they don t comprehend and apply one or more strategies to make the text make sense. Ask students to retell what they read. Practice sequencing story events. If it was a story, talk about the type of story plot (step-by-step is a plot where the characters solve the problem or reach the goal. A circular plot returns to the problem at the end, for example, When You Give a Mouse a Cookie.) Use a story map to show the parts of the story or a web to show the groups of ideas n informational text. Ask students questions and then require them to support their opinions or responses with passages from the text. Ask students to make connections between events of the story and their own lives or other stories. Guide students to reflect on the author s purpose or main idea. Reading Strategies by Level Early Fluent Readers Preview the text by looking at the cover, pictures, chapter titles Think what is this about? Ask yourself - What do I already know about this? - What do I want to know? - What do I think will happen? When I get stuck, I can - look at the pictures - say blank and read on - go back and read it again - get my mouth ready - find chunks I know - look for little words in big words - blend the sounds together Try the word and ask myself, Stop now and then to think - What do I know so far? - Can I see it in my mind? - Am I finding out what I want to know? - Did I guess what would happen? If it is not making sense - Go back and read it again - Talk with someone about it Do I know the story parts? - characters - setting - problem or goal - solution or resolution - events in the order they happened - feelings or what happened next? If the text is information, what is the main idea?
4 Word Recognition Fluent Readers Immediately before starting to read, encourage students to become strategic readers by asking, What can you do to help yourself when you find a word you don t know? We want to continue to reinforce use of a balanced cueing system that includes the way words look (and sounds letters make), the syntax of the sentence (does it sound right?), and the meaning of the text. Try a different sound is a cue to try another sound the letter might make (for example: the hard or soft sound for c, a long or short vowel.) During oral reading support by prompting students to select a strategy and try it. Discourage other students from just giving the word by encouraging them to give a strategy they believe will work. Praise students for trying to self-correct their errors. Modify the role of Vocabulary Enricher in literature circles by adding the responsibility of explaining word strategies used and the effects. After periods of silent reading have students talk about their strategy use by asking, Did anyone get stuck on a word? What strategies did you try? What worked? What didn t work? Why do you think that strategy didn t work here? What do I do if I m stuck on a word? Say blank and read on (fill I the blank after a sentence or two, using the meaning of the rest of the paragraph) Backtrack and read again Look at the word - Find word parts I know - Look for compound words - Find the root word - Notice prefixes and suffices - Blend sounds and word parts - Try a different sound Try the word and ask Use a dictionary Ask someone
5 Get your mind ready: Encourage students to become strategic readers by asking, What do successful readers to before they start to read? Elicit strategies to connect to prior knowledge, make predictions, and set a purpose using the student words in the right column. Guide the students to identify text structure/genre by asking, What type of text is this? Is it a story, is it to give information, or is it a poem? Help students look for key words and text structure to determine what type of text it is. Awareness of text structure supports students comprehension of a variety of texts. Form an initial understanding Before starting to read, encourage students to become strategic by asking, Which comprehension strategies are appropriate for us to use with this text? Teachers need to encourage students to consciously make pictures in their minds as they read. Stop students and ask them to tell you what they are thinking while they are reading. This is part of guiding students to recognize when they are not comprehending. Many students have to be taught to stop when they don t comprehend and apply one or more strategies to make the text make sense. If students are to learn to use reading strategies themselves, it is important for the text to be at their instructional level. Check readability by asking several students to read 100 word passages. If students miss more than 7 words out of 100 then the passage is above their instruction level. If students miss 3 words or less, the passage is at their independent level. Reading Strategies by Level Comprehension Fluent Readers Get your mind ready: Think What do I know about this topic? Preview the material by looking at things like the title, pictures, captions, and table of contents Ask yourself, - What kind of text am I reading? - Is it narrative or expository? - Is it fiction or nonfiction? - What will it be about? - What is my purpose for reading? Form an initial understanding: Visualize what you are reading Stop now and then to think - What is this about? - How does it fit with what I already know? - What is the author trying to do? If the piece is expository - Look for maps, charts, tables, or captions - Make notes of important ideas - Stop now and then to say or write what you ve read in your own words - put ideas together to draw conclusions If the piece is narrative, ask yourself - Identify the characters and the setting - Look for the problem or the goal - Try to predict what will happen next - Look for how the problem or goal is resolved - Look for literary features If it is not making sense - Read it again more slowly and carefully - Try the word strategies for words you don t know - Ask yourself, What is not making sense? and look for the answer in the text - Talk with someone Develop an interpretation and critical stance Develop an interpretation and critical stance Ask students to retell what they read. Summarize or retell what you ve read Discuss the author s purpose (to entertain, to inform, Reread confusing parts or gather more information persuade, teach a lesson). Ask yourself questions about what you ve read If it was a story, talk about the type of story plot (stepby-step, - What did I learn? Can I prove it? circular, or with-a-twist) - What was the author s purpose, point of view, why? Ask students questions and then require them to Organize what you learned support their opinions or responses with passages from the text - Make a story map, character map, or use a graphic organizer Ask students to make connections between events of Make connections the story and their own lives or other stories - What do I know that is like this? Guide students to reflect on the author s purpose or - Did I change my thinking about something? main idea - How will I use this in the future? What predictions can I make?
