My fierce padlet by Tina Mumme https://padlet.com/tmumme/nhaj69kt0tlf Made with a dash of wit en-us 2017-04-18 21:13:53 UTC 2017-04-18 21:50:14 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Xmastree.png I regroup my small reading groups often in a six weeks time depending on what I'm looking for or needing to work on. My kids know that I may be listening for ending sounds when they read orally to me (using lips, tongue, teeth correctly), I may be listening for fluency when they read orally to me, I may be listening for expression when they read orally to me, I may be listening for work attack skills (using our touch phonics) when they read orally to me, or finally, I may be discussing vocabulary/ comprehension skills to see who shines. My kids are never stuck in the same group during a six weeks so they don't ever feel one way or another for too long. I want them to feel challenged some and successful some. We help each other when needed after a little "wait" time is given for them to figure out a problem on their own. As far as behavior, I try to train my class from August to stop and think "can everyone do what I'm doing?" in hopes that makes them more respectful. I finally encourage them to "think, do, and feel" all day in hopes they think positive thoughts, do positive actions, and then feel positive all day every day! tmumme https://padlet.com/tmumme/nhaj69kt0tlf/wish/166887522 2017-04-18 21:18:03 UTC https://padlet.com/tmumme/nhaj69kt0tlf/wish/166887522
