Teknik Marshmallow katapult

http://familyfun

Instructions

Expand the opening of the tissue box by cutting off the sections shown.
Punch a hole 2 inches from one end and 1/2 inch down from the opening of the box. Enlarge the hole with the ballpoint pen. Make a matching hole on the opposite side of the box.
In the center of the far end of the box, poke a hole with the pushpin 1/4 inch up from the bottom. Enlarge the hole slightly with the ballpoint pen.
Snip one rubber band to create a strip. Use the strip to wrap and tie the pencils into a cross, as shown. Loop the other band around the 2-inch pencil section as shown, and tighten.
Insert the pencil cross into the box holes. Fold the pipe cleaner around the rubber band loop and poke both ends through the hole near the base. Spread open the pipe cleaner ends and tape them to the outside of the box. Attach a plastic cap to the end of the pencil with a couple of glue dots.
To use your catapult, pull the capped pencil back, load it with a marshmallow, and let go! (To be safe, do not launch any hard or sharp items.)

Början - mitt- slut Att återberätta!

We read Henny Penny this week and together we put post-its on the charts to retell the story. And, I used the gradual release model to practice. I retold the story by myself, we retold it together, they retold it in groups with character cards they created themselves, they retold it to a partner and then I had them write it. We did all this over the course of two days. It took a while.

"Flip flop book" Kul idé att skriva händelseförloppet i en bok. Vik upp varje flik och skriv en sammanfattning.

Att skriva om den goda karaktären och den onda!

Här en tidslinje text. (T.ex. skriv om att tappa sin första tand och därefter skriv rent.)

Daily 5 - intresssant pedagogik om olika lässtrategier

Daily 5 är en pedagogik som grundar sig på en bok med samma namn. Det går att googla på..Jag har kopierat en bloggs sammanfattning om hur hon börjat med detta. Du kan läsa länken så kanske du förstår mer.
Samma sak för CAFE som också grundar sig på en bok med samma namn. Intressant pedagog
En annan bok jag vill läsa är:

Lesson Elements:

1. Identify what is to be taught

2. Teach the strategy and keep it short

3. Students practice with partners

4. Have student make strategy card

5. Review the strategy

6. Encourage practice during independent reading times

7. Post strategy after independent practice

8. Continue to connect new strategies to others on CAFE board

Notes:

Teach skills in any sequence

Keep lessons short

Review and revisit frequently

Continue to work on skills for mastery

The structure and format is very similar to individual conferences

Grupper:

Children are grouped on Goals and Strategies not reading levels

Children bring their independent reading books which allows for a flexible group

Goal: Comprehension

Check for Understanding- Have student read small sections and retell. Model how to back up and reread if they don't remember. Set up conference to check back with student.
Check for Understanding with an advanced reader- Have student read a page and then answer "Who and What" at the end of each page. Have student practice and set up another conference.

Goal: Accuracy

Flip the sound- Model reading a word that does not make sense in a sentence. Read the word by flipping sounds until the word makes sense. ex. Long o and short o. Have student practice.

Goal: Comprehension

Summarize- Advanced readers may have this goal once they have command over retell the story and check for understanding. They may work on this goal for an extended period of time. Students need to practice giving a summary orally or in writing.

Goal: Accuracy

Cross Checking- Have child read and when they get stuck on a word practice cross-checking. "Do the pictures and/or words look right? Do they sound right? Do they make sense?" There is a kinesthetic arm motion for younger children.

Goal- Fluency

Reread the text- Model with a student who is reading a chapter book that is a little challenging. Have them pick out a paragraph and reread many times until it is smooth, accurate and expressive. Have child practice this strategy every day and mark the paragraph with a sticky note. Set up another conference.

Goal- Expanding Vocabulary

Tune In to Interesting Words- Model with advanced reader how to collect new and interesting words. There is a personal word collector in the appendix. I have used sticky notes that get added to a class list, bookmarks, lists in writing journals, etc. Set up a conference to discuss the new words collected and how to get meanings.

Day1: First Read Aloud

Choose book and model "Check for Understanding"

Introduce CAFE board and add the strategy card

I use check marks for the kids to practice. I have a set of fiction and nonfiction. Click below for post.

Dots and Spots

Second Read Aloud

Read a book and model check for understanding

Pick and model a new strategy, they suggest "Cross Checking" (I did this with fourth graders last year and felt that the motions were too young for them)

Third Read Aloud

Read a book and model "Tune In to Interesting Words"

I had them collect words on a book mark. This year we are going to have a calendar to collect words.

Day 2:

Review CAFE skills.

Read aloud a book and model "Back Up and Reread"

Day 3:

Continue introducing, modeling strategies and skills as needed. My fourth graders moved at a quick pace. I could introduce a few skills every day.

From Whole to Individual Conferences

Step 1: Assess with DRA's, IRI's, Running Records, Reading Inventory, Dibels, Etc.

Step 2: Discuss finding with students

Step 3: Set Goals and Identify Strategy

Step 4: Student declares goal on their menu and highlights sheet. Student put sticky note on CAFE board.

Step 5: Teacher fills out Conference Form in the Pensieve. (I use the app Confer)

Step 6: Teacher fills out Group Strategy form and plans lesson

Step 7: Small group instruction based on needs

Chapter 4: Conferring with Children

Step 1: Check calendar for appointments and keep track on sheet

Step 2: Prepare for conference by scanning notes while walking to child

Step 3: Observe child, listen to their reading and see if they apply strategies

Step 4: Give feedback and help child move forward as a reader. Keep the conference short.

Step 5: Observe the child practice the new strategy

Step 6: Plan whether the child needs more practice or is ready to move on. Set up next conference.

Step 7: Encourage the children to continue working hard and give them the sense of responsibility and sense of ownership of their learning.

What happens during a strategy group?

Students come to the group and begin reading a book from their book box aloud quietly. As the students are reading, the teacher is listening to find out if they are using the strategy about to be introduced during that meeting.
The teacher verbally reinforce the group's goal.
The teacher models the strategy for the students.
The students practice the strategy with their independent books while teacher listens and coaches.
Review the strategy as a group.
Decide if students need to practice individually or with partners.
Plan the next meeting.
