I pick 2 trickier words and highlight them. As a student reads the letter they leave out the tricky word. Then, we all go back and talk about our reading strategies and students share which strategies may be helpful (chunking, etc.) to read  the trickier word. I ask them to always practice this in their own reading. (Emily)]]> 2021-01-13 01:06:04 UTC https://padlet.com/tv40876/b8chpo1a3w3tuy6p/wish/1081209647 https://padlet.com/tv40876/b8chpo1a3w3tuy6p/wish/1081209686 - Occurs at the same time each day
