2 On the index card….  Your name/Su nombre  Your child’s name/El nombre de su hijo  Write 1 or 2 sentences explaining how important reading is in your life. (In English or Spanish) We will hang these up around the room!

3  Fluency = pace (speed at which you read)  Fluency = phrasing (chunking of words)  Fluency = intonation (expression)  Fluency = punctuation

4  Fluency = decoding (reading the words right)  By middle school, students should be able to read 150 words per minute (WPM) of a grade- level text.

7  Students should read aloud every night.  Idea: Use your cell phone “stopwatch” to time your child reading the same text a few times. Read aloud for at least 5 minutes a night.

8  Idea: Have your child read a picture book to a younger sibling, cousin, family friend. Have them go to the library to pick out books about subjects they’ll both enjoy reading.  Idea: Turn the “close captioning” on the TV.

9  Comprehension = understanding the meaning of the text

10  Comprehension requires students to use these “superpowers” while reading:  Making Inferences  Asking Questions  Monitor and Clarify Comprehension  Summarizing  Synthesizing

11  Be a family that reads!  Idea: Set a good example. Have everyone in the family read at the same time for 15 minutes/night.  Idea: Read the same book together. Take turns reading it aloud. Discuss what’s happening.

12

13  Be a family that reads!  Idea: Ask questions about what your child is reading.  Idea: Make trips to the library or bookstore a special time with your child.

14  Anything!!! Magazines, websites, comic books, graphic novels.  “Just Right Books” = 5 words or less words that they don’t know (can’t decode or don’t understand)

15 Sandi A. Baer Tech Competency 12 10/21/10 This presentation was created for a Family Literacy Workshop I hosted for the parents of my students, all struggling readers. I included art I found on the Internet (title slide image of boy reading), photos of students engaging in our daily fluency work, and a video of students engaging in independent reading to help ensure the presentation was interesting. I used my cell phone to capture the student photos and video, e-mailed them to myself, and then inserted them into the slide show.
