    -fluency-, look into text accuracy, speed and expression
    -vocabulary - creating word map, word walls
    -comprehension - reading comprehension is understanding the content.

As educators we need to make sure that we find out the needs of the students specifically so with reluctant readers as they may have language processing disorder or visual processing disorder. This reminds me of my x form class student. He never did well in subjects that require a lot of reading such as English geography history and literature. He has language processing disorder. However it’s only after visiting the LBS did he know that he has tracking issues. And from there the LBS did the necessary interventions and procedures for AA to help him. 
    2. The ability to decode words will help a child be on the road to reading fluently. Reading sight words is one way to improve decoding.

    Following are my 3 takeaways from the lecture:
    1. The 6 factors that influence reading and the 2 elements of reading comprehension. One of the factors that influence reading (Educational Factors) is quite evident in society where the inaccessibility of reading materials at young age (due to reasons such as financial issues, disruptive family background) may have affected some to have develop poor reading skills.

    2. When planning resources for teaching, we must first look at the needs of the student. As an AED(LBS), we must always have an investigative and detective mindset. Organized the information that have been collected. Then only we can search for the appropriate tools to support the student.

    3. The qualities of Fluency is the ability to read a text accurately, quickly and with expression. Having a rich knowledge of words will build up the fluency.]]>     2020-08-18 08:44:23 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_owyeong/o3ryxszudui54k9d/wish/684451047     TG1 Md Eleazhar On https://padlet.com/elizabeth_owyeong/o3ryxszudui54k9d/wish/684451155 1. There are many strategies and tools we can use to teach vocabulary. However, it is important for us to consider factors affecting the pupils' learning and deploy the most appropriate one. 

    2. It is critical to first assess and identify the learning needs of the pupils before selecting an instrument to bridge learning gaps. 

    3. Different tools addressing the same learning gap needs to be administered differently. Each comes with specific instructions that needs to be adhered to strictly to ensure validity, reliability and accuracy of the package. Always use latest version of toolkit where possible so pupils can be accurately assessed. For example; there are a few versions of Dibels. The texts are different between them and the older ones may not be relevant to be applied for this period. ]]>     2020-08-18 08:44:33 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_owyeong/o3ryxszudui54k9d/wish/684451155     TG1 Suzi https://padlet.com/elizabeth_owyeong/o3ryxszudui54k9d/wish/684451224
    I have learnt that in order for a student to love reading, he/she must be able to decode the words and comprehend the passage.

    If the child is able to know most of the sight words or high frequency words, he/she should be able to read at least 50% of a passage.

    Active reading tips include highlighting important information, write in the margin of the text and reading out aloud.

    1. Components of Reading Instructions should start with Phonological Awareness (letter-sounds), then Word Identification (decoding strategies at word level), last but not least at fluency stage with reading, vocabulary recognition and comprehension skills.
    2. When finding resources for teaching, we should not use tools just because it is commonly used or popular in practice. We should first assess the students’ capabilities, looks at their needs first, find out what tools will fit best for their learning needs. Be like a detective, look out for their learning gaps then choose from your repository of strategies for support. Even with the tools selected, we must fine-tune and make it suitable for that student’s level. The support must be aligned with the needs. Start with explicit instructions, then model the way, do together and self-practice. Throughout the process, give positive encouragement and constructive feedback, let them explore, make mistakes, and learn from it instead of giving direct answers. Make teaching interesting, engage the learner using multi-sensory methods.
    3. When teaching comprehension skills, we must allow them to differentiate types of questions which can be textually explicit (directly from the text), textually implicit (from text but need to gather background knowledge and piece together) and scripturally implicit (inference skills, not stated directly in text, must look for clues, logical thinking skills, based on their prior experience). With active reading, tell students to highlight key points, annotate with examples, read aloud, explain in their words what they understand from the content and test themselves or peer teaching using flash cards.

    1. Developing fluency through Word Web is more than just a vocabulary exercise. When conducted in small groups,  learners will be more confident in voicing themselves.
    2. To teach kids BIG WORDS at a young age by 'experiencing the words' in an interesting manner is certainly an effort worth trying.
    3.

    1. Reading fluently provides a bridge between word recognition and comprehension. This is an area most LA students have difficulty with.
    2.   Find the right reading schema for our students to facilitate their reading comprehension. Let the students tap on their prior knowledge, use pictures or make it engaging.
    3. Techniques to have active readings are to let the students highlight, to write note at the margin, read out load, explain to others or test themselves.]]>     2020-08-18 08:48:43 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_owyeong/o3ryxszudui54k9d/wish/684454023     TG4 Shim Baoling https://padlet.com/elizabeth_owyeong/o3ryxszudui54k9d/wish/684454757 1. We need to be mindful of the factors that influence the child’s reading so to have a better analysis
    2. Conduct assessment before giving the right support and ensure that the strategies aligned to the child’s needs
    3. Teach with expression and provide visuals to reinforce learning. Engage the child in learning with role plays.

Really nice to see all the resources. They are all new to me as I was not introduced to them by my mentor. Will take time to go through and sort them!

    2. Nice to be reminded once again that we should look at the students' needs first before we get excited to use all the resources provided. 

    2. Learnt many new strategies through this session, all the coursemates' sharings and also watching the videos. ]]>     2020-08-18 09:00:48 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_owyeong/o3ryxszudui54k9d/wish/684461851     1 Sng Hsueh Ching (Elaine) https://padlet.com/elizabeth_owyeong/o3ryxszudui54k9d/wish/684481166 1. In order to make your students excited, a teacher must be excited too. We must inspire our students to read. 
    2. For students to love reading, they must become fluent in the language. We as educators can guide them to achieve that fluency. 
    3. Students with dyslexia can come to love reading too once they are equipped with methods to decode the language and achieve fluency. ]]>     2020-08-18 09:33:54 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_owyeong/o3ryxszudui54k9d/wish/684481166     TG 1 Nur Shreen https://padlet.com/elizabeth_owyeong/o3ryxszudui54k9d/wish/684482380 3 takeaway from today’s lecture:
    1.     Reading strategies for fluency includes:
    Recording students reading aloud on their own. When you ask student to read to read aloud, you can try to record their reading so that they can play back and analyse their reading after they are done. 
    Get them to read the same thing several times. 
    It would to good also to pre teach the vocabulary words with found in the passage through the use of pictures to get students to visualise and understand the passage better. 
    Drilling them to know sight words can also be useful for the weaker ones. Online materials are readily made available for you to use. 

    2.     Differentiation of comprehension text
    Textually Explicit-information is derived directly from text with minimal input from the readers’ background knowledge
    Textually Implicit- Information derived from the text will require readers to use their background knowledge where they need to pout together ideas presented in text
    Scripturally Implicit-     Information not stated in the text where readers have to activate their own background information to relate and understand better
    3.     Helping students with comprehension issues
    • To highlight the keywords/main idea from the passage. Just make sure that you do not highlight so many words from the whole passage 
    • Write in the margin a short description of what the sentences in each paragraph is talking about. To make relations with what was read
    • Reading the passage out loud 
    • To explain what you just read to your partner about the passage 
    • To test yourself to see if what you read is correct
    To check the vocabulary used in passages before you conduct the reading as the weaker students may not be able to relate to Singapore context.
    Eg, autumn, spring, summer.
    Be enthusiastic while you demonstrate reading will also invoke the students interest further so that student will feel motivated to do as well as how you have demonstrated

    My 3 Takeaway from this lecture are

    1) There are several factors that could influence a child’s reading such as Cognitive Factors, Neurophysiological factors, Educational Factors, Communication Factors, Personality Factors and Textual Factors.

    2) When Dr Ow got four volunteers to read a passage that was filled with unrecognisable words, they struggled and sounded like a child with reading difficulties and that was where Dr Ow started to question the volunteers on how do they feel when they read a passage filled with unrecognisable words. They replied they had difficulty reading it and were feeling frustrated.  That was where Dr Ow got us to put ourselves into the shoes of students who strugggle to read and hence encouraging us to implement strategies on how we can help these students.

    3) Dr Ow also encouraged us to work like a detective, investigating the child’s reading skill and fluency by speaking to his or her teachers, observe his or her reading or take out our testing tools to assess his or her reading before coming up suitable strategies to help the child’s reading skill.]]>     2020-08-18 16:20:12 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_owyeong/o3ryxszudui54k9d/wish/685272748     TG2 Foo Jit Too https://padlet.com/elizabeth_owyeong/o3ryxszudui54k9d/wish/688797059 1.factors that influence reading are cogntitive, communication, personality, textual, neurophysiological an educational.

AED (LBS) is a role like a detective to investigate and look out for the students' needs especially the area that a child may lacking in and its causes in creating the gaps. Sourcing for appropriate tools/ strategies in closing up the gaps.

    2. Respond with positive expressions (tone and body language) can ease the children's anxiety.

    3. To enhance the fluency in languages and reading, we need to guide students in learning to decode words and to understand the comprehension (function) of the words used.]]>     2020-08-20 14:08:49 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_owyeong/o3ryxszudui54k9d/wish/689279952     TG 4 Angelin https://padlet.com/elizabeth_owyeong/o3ryxszudui54k9d/wish/689798011 I had always believe that as long you incite a passion for reading, students would enjoy the reading. Understanding that decoding and comprehension = reading makes me realise that it is not only about the passion.

    Understand the student's needs, rather than focusing on strategy first. Monitoring and assessment helps us in this before we are able to find the relevant strategy to help the student.

    Fluency rubrics. Peer reading might also be helpful.

If they find that they are able to retell us the story or text, they would find it as a small success to themselves.
    We should help our students in understanding comprehension passages. We can highlight the words for the main idea and explain the meaning of the words which they do not know .  We should show expression while reading to make reading more interesting.
    We should inculcate our students to love to read so that they would be able to increase their vocabulary.]]>     2020-08-23 05:02:02 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_owyeong/o3ryxszudui54k9d/wish/693197288
