Super Readers
Kindergarten students have been practicing their Super Reading Powers during our new reading unit. Students have also been using their new pointers to read sight words in their books with pointer power. Students tap under each word one time in order to ensure they are reading each word on the page. This is especially helpful when words have multiple syllables. The pointers help students to keep track of where they are on the page and practice stretching out sounds for words they may be unfamiliar with. Students also read with a partner during our workshop time. Partner times allows students to stretch out words together and practice their pointer powers while taking turns reading their books. Building these foundational reading skills help students prepare for reading books at their levels as our reading skills progress throughout the year.
We have been slowly introducing and practicing sight words throughout the year to build up their word knowledge. Students have been working on activities and playing games with their sight words. We have also been using a Kagan structure, called Quiz, Quiz, Trade to practice these words. During this activity students walk around and a high five a partner, then they show their partner a card that has a sight word on it. Next, their partner reads the word and then they read their partners word. Once they have read each others words they trade word cards and walk around to high five a new partner. This Kagan structure allows students to build social skills with one another as well as practice their sight word knowledge in a fun way. Students are exposed to the words multiple times and practice reading them immediately by sight. When introducing new sight words, we practice reading them, spelling them, and sounding them. We also have movements to go along with them that show the type of letter. Tall letter, reach up, small letter, squat, and fall letter, touch the ground. For the word big we reach up, then squat, then touch the ground as we practicing spelling the word. Once students are more familiar with the new words they get added into our Quiz, Quiz, Trade game.
As students are reading their books they are using their pointer power to identify these sight words. They were thrilled to see how many words they could read in books that they picked up for the first time! You can see their confidence growing as they are able to read more and more words. We are excited to continue to build up our sight word knowledge and continue to practice our super reading skills as our new unit continues.
