Re: [MOSAIC] Round Robin Reading_partner reading
Just a clarification...when I mentioned partner reading, I was talking about two kids, that I partner up, sitting together and reading a section. Partner reading , in my room, is completely orchestrated by me. I pick the partners. I use DRA levels and match kids up. If I had 24 kids in my class, I would list them from highest DRA to lowest, cut my list in half, and then the person listed number 1 would be partnering with person number 13. I do this because I want the highest working with the middle student, and the middle student working with a lower reader. I find that if two 'higher' readers are together, they tend to be a little bossy, and their personalities actually work better with a middle reader. My middle readers work nicely with a lower reader and seem to be more helpful then bossy. Hope this makes sense. Oh, there are days when some partner groups don't work out and I have to make changes, but on the whole, it seems to work . Sometimes I do let the kids choose their own partners, but mostly partner groups in my room are set up by me.
