For me, September is all about building relationships, establishing trust, creating a working environment and getting to know your children as readers and learners. September is for teaching children what it is that good readers do, setting tone and establishing expectations, procedures and engaging and motivating children to want to learn to read. Learning to read is our business! With well-written stories that have interesting plots, playing with words and exploring a variety of fiction, non-fiction and poetry and rhymes. I will be helping your child to access what they already know and make connections to something new.
We have been working on why people read and what this classroom looks like and sounds like when we are reading. We wrote it all up in a nice T chart and then practiced. For our first couple tries went really well.
Ask your child what Read 20/10 means to them and why it is important.
