With each add on, allow students time to practice reading it aloud until they can say the sentence with fluency. 

For example:
First sentence: Jill ran. 
Second sentence: Jill ran up. Third sentence:
Jill ran up the hill.

Four words, three of which rhyme, are presented by the teacher. Students determine which word is the odd one that doesn't belong with the others. ]]> 2017-11-16 04:31:55 UTC https://padlet.com/mcfallscaitlin/zf1w6myv05ce/wish/207520311 Word Recognition and Spelling mcfallscaitlin https://padlet.com/mcfallscaitlin/zf1w6myv05ce/wish/207521703 Cut out letters from paper, magazines, or use refrigerator magnets.

Beside the image, write all but one of the sounds and have students determine which sound is missing. 

For example, there is a picture of a dog on the board, you write ‘og’ beside it and the students have to provide you with the missing sound, not the letter. ]]> 2017-11-16 04:49:45 UTC https://padlet.com/mcfallscaitlin/zf1w6myv05ce/wish/207522365 Comprehension mcfallscaitlin https://padlet.com/mcfallscaitlin/zf1w6myv05ce/wish/207523208 Walk through a book with the students, pointing out photographs, illustrations, and other graphic elements. Ask them what they notice about the pictures and how they think those details may relate to the story or content. ]]> 2017-11-16 04:57:37 UTC https://padlet.com/mcfallscaitlin/zf1w6myv05ce/wish/207523208
