Oh! And partner reading too. That’s a non-negotiable. 📚 Photo from last week, but we partner read every day.

Intermediate grade teachers feel so much pressure to teach to the reading comprehension standards. They need permission to start where kids are and teach the word recognition skills that support reading comprehension. Differentiation required. Not all whole group.

Decodable sentences provide Ss w/ a controlled text that follow a predictable pattern & help them practice reading more frequently, which will make it easier to gain fluency! With the @TLDSB Crack the Code resource Ss can share their learning & practice reading @ home!🕵️‍♂️📚🕵️‍♀️

Thank you to all K-1 Educators from across @TLDSB who participated in the learning session today on how to effectively respond to data using high yield strategies! The team is excited to share this learning with more educators in the upcoming sessions this week!

After a few days of explicit teaching this guided activity has become an independent station that students are capable of working at all on their own! 🤓 @ParkviewPS
