Targets for Today: I can read a variety of materials for enjoyment.  I can read fluently.  I know and can use reading strategies to fix-up problems with understanding what I'm reading.

Today’s  Agenda: 1. Pick up your folder.  2. Select a book to read -- either one you brought or one from our classroom shelves. Do a SELF Check:        Study area,       Emotions,      Level of difficulty (of the material you're reading), and how you're       Feeling physically.        Read your book for about 15 minutes.       Then fill out your reading log.  3. Partner Fluency Practice.   4.   Your Brochure: Outside  (Today we are doing the middle.) After Reading -- #2 RETAIN Continued from  DURING READING Fix-Up  Strategies  1. Check your own inner  voice. 2. Focus on it, and read it  again. 3. Try reading it out loud. 4. Try reading ahead a bit. 5.  Look for any words (or  ideas or facts) that may be  getting in your way. 6.  Ask someone who  can help you. -- or mark it  with a ? for later. 7. Add to your background knowledge!  You can do this before reading or during reading. Look it up on a reliable online site. Find a book for children on the topic. Watch a documentary or other educational program.  BICUM Be in Control: Use Metacognition [Your Name] [Your Class Period] Context Clues: During Reading -- Be Active:  Thursday, November 16, 2017 If time, finish up Internet Savvy work from last time:  Monday, November 27, 2017
