A rich picture of my teaching prior to making changes:
Explicit Planning- Selection of Texts
Inference-Making Reading Engagement
Peer support/ Small Group Activities (PALS)
Buddy Reading(Jnr & Snr Class)
Emphasis on timed reading exercises- Read Theory
Gradual increase in Reading Durations
More focus on character study
Extended Discussion (Tried in Term 2 but I felt it was not working for my cohort)
In my planning process, I use a specific type of text format, like bullet points or a mind map, to clearly outline the steps and ensure a focus on the content.
Here's a snapshot from my Reading Plan.
Another successful strategy that I used in Term 2 was "Buddy Reading" - Tuakana Teina (Junior & Senior Classes). I will continue with this in Term 3 as well.
