Many times we have our students focus on the same skill, in their reading

Me too. How did we learn to read??? I went to what was considered a very
progressive public school in the mid 40's Can you imagine being
progressive then? I don't remember phonics, but I know we were later than
The Horn Books. I do believe it was language experience. I don't remember

We use DIBELS and use the retell section as a guide to comprehension. We can
assess the difference by noting whether the students did a word by word
retelling or gave a summary of the passage.

When our district adopted DIBLES about 7 years ago. We talked about the
possibilty of Palm Pilots then. And here we are 7 years later and we're still
talking! However, the online datasystem although sporadically
temperamental, is a very powerful tool.

If kids have books have a selection of books they can read independently, they
are much more willing to choice from a topic (sports) or any genre they like.
The key is to have books students can read independently (without struggling)
on a topic they like.

We have found that when we get the kids involved in conversations before they
write, they have a much better sence of what they write. So, if we, as a class,
small group, or pair, share what we've read, in terms of strategies good
readers use, they are much more able to put those conversations
We like to have genuine conversations with students about what they've read.
The students use the colored dots to remember character details or some
important visualization they got from the text, as well as inferences or
conclusions they were able to draw from the text. With these aids. marked
stick sticky dots in the book?

We used the same technique using color coded self sticking dots to denote
different ideas, i.e. characters thoughts and actions, words in the text that
created pictures (visulaizing) setting, problem solution, inferences, etc.

I also believe silent independent reading is key...however, with a caveat.
1. To be sure students are actually reading during that time, we need to
conference with them daily just for a minute or two to check for comprehension.
2. A Jot Journal to write a sentence about what they read today.
I think that Open house time is a fabulous opportunity to share that! You
probably won't have as captive an audience any other time of the year!
