In the school I work for, when we are teaching these it is usually with the thought process of "when two vowels go walking, the first one does the talking." This resource shows the common vowel combinations and also has a few video resources as well. One is a Jack Hartmann video. There are a few other resources as well, one is a interactive game site, a teachers site for individual needs, a few tidbits on centers and daily work, and different phonics tools one could use in the classroom.

It gave 10 important things to make the most of silent reading in schools. For example: enjoyment, student choice, right space, reflection time, modeled for students, library access, reading happens often, physical copies available, etc. Students need to be able to read often to be able to read independently and understanding.

This site gives great information on how to help older and younger kids understand the meaning of closed and open syllables.
As well, this site gives information on how to teach students prefixes, stems, and suffixes - structural analysis. Though this differs from syllable division, it gives students another option of how to detect syllables and the structure of words.

This packet does not require much out the student but to log the chapters read and to jot down any vocabulary they found within their book that was unfamiliar to them. This prompts comprehension of the book when students can write down their thoughts, but also prompts extended vocabulary as they research words they do not know. ]]> 2022-03-17 01:41:07 UTC https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2099108239 Silent Reading Time Log- Kylea Ricketts kylearicketts https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2099127481 I like this reading log because not only does it tell me the date, the book information, and the number of pages the student read. It also tells me how much the student liked the part of the book and how much they understood the book during the silent reading time. The log uses smiley faces all the way to a mad face for both of these questions. I also like that the log includes a summary of what the students read and any predictions that they might have. This would take about five minutes for students to fill out after silent reading time.]]> 2022-03-17 01:53:58 UTC https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2099127481 Silent Reading Time https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2099271396 I found this article from a teacher who does silent reading every day. I really enjoyed reading this teacher's article and how she was able to have successful silent reading. I think this would be helpful to look at to see how another teacher used silent reading in her class. I really liked how she mentioned she doesn't reward learning because she understands that everyone can be at different levels and that her reading conferences are what tell her who is struggling or needs help or who needs new book selections. I would definitely use the 15 minutes of silent reading in my future classroom and see how it works out.

These two activities are something I would use in my future classroom.

Then it goes on to ask which is best for upper elementary students and then proceeds to compare and contrast them both, which I really liked. Both have groups that consist of about 4-6 readers, meet about once a week to discuss a book they have chosen, and each student in the group is responsible for completing an assigned reading and kind of coming up with their ideas about it before the next meeting. Then it goes on to talk about the differences. Literature circles: follows teacher created schedule, students fill roles, focuses on multiple aspects of reading, more structured, etc. Book clubs: more student led, more focused on understanding, less structure, independent, etc. There are a few links as well within this resource at the bottom when it talks about ways to incorporate literature circles and book clubs in the classroom. ~Ashton Hernandez-Cabanas]]> 2022-03-29 16:35:50 UTC https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2119750756 Reader Response Activities - Ashton Hernandez-Cabanas ashtonhernandezcabanas https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2119765599 This resource has 5 activities for reading response.

A lot of the options provided included a physical activity with the reading. However, one of my favorites was teaching students to question out loud as they read.

This can help students answer what is going on, or simply just comprehend the aspects of the story. ]]> 2022-03-30 23:00:38 UTC https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2122397660 reading strategies for kindergarten selenabryan https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2122560054 This sight is very benefiting to a first time teacher. it gives may ideas to help engage your little ones into the reading that they might be doing.

Obviously as teaches we will find out our own styles and and what works for our students, but overall this is a great jumping off point. This video gives specific examples on how students would apply this to text; I like the idea of giving students a concrete example of what to do by making them practice as a class first.

It explains to you what are reading comprehension strategies as well as talk about struggling readers.

I like how this educator structured each group initially by giving each student in the group a specific role and task they need to do to contribute. They also created and agenda for the book group to ensure each time the group meets it is a productive session built around conversation. This gently guides students but also allows room for free flowing conversation and student led discovery. They also had several resources and other ideas that teachers can use and print! ]]> 2022-04-21 17:02:56 UTC https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2152385091 Reader Response Activities Jessamyn Mansfield jessamynmansfield https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2152396683 This is another blog post that has a bunch of really interesting reading response templates, formats, buildable ideas, and fun activities/projects. I found that a lot of these ideas are relatively creative and incorporate other skills; these ideas are also a really great base for each educator to make their own. These ideas also seem fun enough to keep students engaged and excited. ]]> 2022-04-21 17:10:40 UTC https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2152396683 Reading Strategy Instruction jessamynmansfield https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2152406160 I though this source was interesting and a great simplified example of how reading strategies could be taught. It starts with a list of different reading and reading response skills, defining these terms, and explaining what they look like. After that they have several basic lesson templates that teachers can use as a foundation for teaching these strategies; a foundation that they can build on and structure to fit a specific unit or grade level. I think this is a great source because it is so straight forward and malleable to each teacher, classroom, and student. ]]> 2022-04-21 17:17:15 UTC https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2152406160 Close Reading - Kaelee https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2153030824 I chose this link because the author describes the importance and the misconceptions about close reading.

Close reading is a critical analysis of a text focusing on important details and patterns to develop a deep understanding of the texts meaning. Close reading is a strategy that includes pre-reading activities, reading responses, small group, think-pair-share, and more. I'd only use this if I was going to begin using this strategy to get some background knowledge. ]]> 2022-04-22 15:25:08 UTC https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2153754828 Close Reading by Chasity Gaither chasitygaither https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2154960030 This is a video that a teacher has made of her classroom as she is teaching a close read lesson with them.

These activities help motivate students to get excited about reading. I like the activities on this site and can see myself using these in my future classroom. I really like the books on tape activity. The students tape themselves reading books that are from a children's hospital. The tapes are sent to the hospital where children can listen to them as they look at the books. ]]> 2022-04-24 02:05:55 UTC https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2154972710 Close Reading in Fiction and Informational Text - Ashton Hernandez-Cabanas ashtonhernandezcabanas https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2156620237 I really do love a good, informational blog. Sometimes you'll get one that is real boring or doesn't have what you are looking for. What I really liked about this was all of the tips that it had. If you are a brand new teacher, like we will be, it made it easy to follow along and understand why she is saying what she is saying. She mentions what works for her. She explains how important it is for students to do the work of understanding and connecting on their own without front-loading and introducing the passage ourselves. I like how she bolded very important things. Like right under #4. Questioning. That Close Reading is "text-dependent". She also posted a few links and pages for grades to use for Close Reading. I could definitely use these tips in my classroom. Especially considering I just taught my practicum using a poem that was kind of informational. This would have been good to have read beforehand. ~Ashton Hernandez-Cabanas]]> 2022-04-25 14:09:58 UTC https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2156620237 Online reading resources for grades 3-5 - Ashton Hernandez-Cabanas ashtonhernandezcabanas https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2156637976 This is my favorite online reading resource. My preschooler, 1st grader, and 3rd grader all use it. I've tutored 5th graders who love using it. Many students can't afford the paid version, though it's not horribly expensive at $9.99, it may be more than what their parents can budget into. But during the hours of 8-4, students can use this free online reading resource to read. It has books, graphic novels, comics, read-to-me, listening center type books, etc. Students have the option of picking books that interest them. Similar to going to the school or city library and picking any book. Students can read at whatever level they feel comfortable at and then take a test for understanding afterwards if the teacher wants them to. They can even set goals for themselves. I really think this app is a great online resource for students to have access to. ~Ashton Hernandez-Cabanas]]> 2022-04-25 14:19:04 UTC https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2156637976 Reading Motivation for Grades 3-5 -Ashton Hernandez-Cabanas ashtonhernandezcabanas https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2156724656 I thought these were super cute ideas that many students could get into. And even if a few students couldn't get into one, they might get into one of the others. I think students would prefer the digital choice boards since many of them prefer digital work to written work. Many students also really like having incentives. I know at my school we have prizes that our ELL students can pick from. So grades 1-5 read a certain amount of days to receive a prize. There was the idea on here for a Book Tasting, which I had never heard about so I had to look that up. I think this would be interesting but I think might be difficult to accomplish in the regular classroom unless maybe the whole grade got together to do it together. Many other things could bridge or grow off of these incentive ideas though. There are endless possibilities and I am able to see it working at my school with our ELL students. ~Ashton Hernandez-Cabanas]]> 2022-04-25 15:00:23 UTC https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2156724656 Online Reading Resources - Sydney Gennuso sydneygennuso https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2156760810 This site lists a variety of online resources based on many different needs.

For teachers, its a great way to see where students are in their reading level, what genres/books they enjoy, and where their strengths and weaknesses are. For student, it is a great way for them to see how much they have grown, how their tastes have changes, and discover new things about books/classmates/themselves.

The teacher picks 10 books and then students choose their book using the protocol called PICK. The “P” asks if they understand the book’s purpose, the “I” reflects on their interest level, the “C” asks if they’re able to comprehend the text, and the “K” says if there are more than 5 words a student doesn’t know then the book is too hard. I think this would be a great strategy for upper elementary students.

It is simply part of the school day and part of learning. Many students handle this expectation differently. I’ve been at this librarian thing for a long time and I have learned some tricks of the trade to help motivate your students to read.

Some of the strategies discussed are enacting a favorite character, being a talk show host, using movement, and using read-alouds. ]]> 2022-04-27 16:27:37 UTC https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2160709591 New Literacies - Nicole Gregory andrexeae https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2160710595 This was a neat article that includes ten different sites or apps to check out. It includes information about each one, like grade level, if it is free, and the skills it teaches. It discusses these sites: Between the Lions, Starfall, StoryPlace, Storyline Online, ReadWriteThink Student Interactives, PBS Reading Games, WordWorld, Storynory, OxfordOWL, and ABCya. ]]> 2022-04-27 16:28:15 UTC https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2160710595 Close Reading in Informational Texts - Nicole Gregory andrexeae https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2160711890 This video is a bit on the longer side, but it has some useful information on how to teach close reading on informational text to students a bit older. This is a 5th grade class the teacher is working with. The teacher does an excellent job of modeling how to perform close reading on an article about eagles. ]]> 2022-04-27 16:29:03 UTC https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2160711890 Close Reading in Informational Texts - Jaine Johnson jainejohnson1 https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2161252668 I love this website. It provides information on how to engage students in reading informational texts, and assists the teacher in what they can provide for them. It provides individual engagement, and group engagement activities (which I believe is important to incorporate both within the classroom). ]]> 2022-04-28 00:20:16 UTC https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2161252668 New Literacies - Jaine Johnson jainejohnson1 https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2161259475 This website highlights it all As it gives us 38 of the most popular reading websites for students, it gives us the descriptions we all need. It highlight what the websites are, what they focus on, and the age level they are geared towards. ]]> 2022-04-28 00:26:28 UTC https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2161259475 Reading Motivation for Grades 3-5 - Jaine Johnson jainejohnson1 https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2161262950 This is a great website. It provides educators with ideas they can incorporate into their classroom to continuously engage students in reading. My personal favorite is the reading certificates and celebrations; as this is a way students can not only see progress, but also enjoy the progression. ]]> 2022-04-28 00:29:19 UTC https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2161262950 Close Reading in Informational Text by Linda Powell lindapowell1 https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2161268040 I really like this article and I think it is an amazing resource to have. What I think stood out to me the most was, it tells you that not every text is appropriate for close reading. As teachers I think that we often over look this point. This is a resource that I have printed out for my own use.

Our school uses the Book It Program from Pizza Hut and we also award AR prizes that the students can pick from. I believe that the students benefit when they are properly motivated.

It also will build their confidence in reading comprehension. ]]> 2022-04-30 20:38:27 UTC https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2165460124 Online Resources for Students-Gregory Glatz https://padlet.com/ouacademictech/IdeasExchangeFlorySP2_22/wish/2165462989 This site is wonderful because it gives students numerous resources for reading materials at home.

I like the tips this teacher gave and how to not use it all the time because it might suck the joy of reading out of students. I would use this resource in my classroom and especially the posters that are on this blog and the task cards with the stem questions.

I think the ideas on this website are great for reading motivation. One of the ideas I really liked was the reading certificates and celebrations because it is always great to be celebrated. I think many students would like to be celebrated for accomplishments they achieved when it comes to reading. I would use these ideas in my classroom because they are great ideas to motivate students.

I would use this in my classroom because students can get on the website on their own and find the book they are reading or that we are reading as a class and either listen to the book or play the games that are on the website.
