Wrap  Up  

Each  student  chooses  from  a  leveled  e-­‐library  of  200  high-­‐interest  trade  books  and  reads  independently.  The  teacher  conferences  with  individual  students  on  a  weekly  basis.  

The  teacher  uses  contextual  sentences,  media,  and  interac;ve  surveys  to  instruct  students  on  1-­‐3  vocabulary  words.  

The  teacher  models  and  guides  the  student  readers  through  the  strategies  and  skills  of  effec;ve  reading  comprehension.  

The  teacher  launches  whole  group,  small  group,  or  partnered  conversa;on  surrounding  the  Read  Aloud  Think  Aloud  text  in  order  to  make  connec;ons  between  the  text,  the  strategies,  and  the  students’  worlds.  

The  teacher  provides  modeling  and  direct  instruc;on  on  reading  skills,  vocabulary  terms,  and  elements  of  wri;ng.  Students  complete  guided  prac;ce  ac;vi;es.  

Students  work  individually  to  apply  the  strategies  on  an  Interac;ve  Reader,  complete  personalized  skills  prac;ce,  and  write  and  revise  coached  wri;ng  assignments.  The  teacher  provides  intensive  small-­‐group  instruc;on  to  select  students.  

The  class  regroups  to  discuss  what  they  have  learned  that  day.  The  teacher  previews  the  next  day’s  lesson.
