Amanda Meyer Independent Reading: A Structure of the ACPS Literacy Model

Outcomes Define and discuss what independent reading looks like in an ACPS classroom Experience an independent reading block in order to understand how it is implemented in the classroom

Essential Question How can I effectively implement independent reading in my classroom?

Norms Participate actively in reflections and discussions. Respect ideas, opinions, and contributions of others (limit side conversations). Apply respectful and professional use of technology. Add unrelated questions or comments to the “Parking Lot” to discuss at the end.

Activator Turn & Talk to participants at your table about… What Independent Reading IS What Independent Reading IS NOT

Part of the ACPS Literacy Model model.acps.schoolfusion.us/modules/groups/group_pages.pht ml?gid= &nid=241611&0154a2&0154a2

“…almost everything, from phonemic awareness, to phonics, to comprehension, is developed through independent reading and writing.” - Richard Allington, 2009

“When we are pressed for time, independent reading is usually the first thing cut. However, a carefully monitored independent reading program is the single most important part of your reading instructional program.” - Regie Routman

Components of Independent Reading Mini-Lesson (5-10 minutes) Modeling, think-alouds of focus strategy Reading & 1:1 Conferences (30 minutes) Running records, anecdotal records Reading responses, reading logs Strategy Share (5-10 minutes)

Independent Reading and Gradual Release Read Aloud (teacher explicitly models) I (teacher) do it Shared Reading (practice together) We do it Independent Reading (student practice) You do it

Tools to Select “Just Right Texts” Scholastic Reading Intervention (SRI) – Lexile Levels Recommended Reading Report Fountas & Pinnell Benchmark Assessment System (BAS) Running Records Other Anecdotal Records/Notes

How Do We Get Started with Independent Reading?

Rituals and Routines Start slow Model/teach, practice, and monitor the reading behaviors first Teach students to monitor their own engagement (book bags, book logs & reading response) Resources: -On Solid Ground by Sharon Taberski -Guiding Readers and Writers Grades 3-6 by Fountas & Pinnell

Individualized Book Bags Organized Library

Any other ideas? Turn and talk about things you have used during your independent reading conferences. Share out ideas.

Let’s Experience It! Strategy Lesson Reminder Think back to read aloud (modeled) and shared reading (practiced together) When we’re reading, we should be developing questions about what we’re reading. Read/Conference Reflect on Post-Its “Questions & Connections” Share/Reflect
