Phonics for Kindergarten and First Grade

By Science and STEAM Team

This phonics book was made with kindergarteners and first graders in mind.

The sounds included are short vowel (cvc), long vowel (cvc silent e), common blends, and digraphs.

Use this journal as you teach different sounds.

After instructing the students have them use the journal to record words that they find while reading. This is particularly good if you use phonics readers / decodable readers. I partner my students up and have them partner read from the reader and record any words that they find at the end of each

page they are reading. This gets the students reading, saying, and discussing the words together! What better practice than that!

Guided Reading Lesson Plan & Activities for Grade 1

By Bright Classroom Ideas Marketplace

A few words on guided reading

Guided reading involves small-group instruction where a teacher aids each reader in developing strategies for effectively processing new texts that progressively increase in difficulty. In guided reading, students in a small group read a text chosen by you that matches their instructional reading level. You deliver instruction throughout the lesson to help students develop their mental frameworks of strategies for handling progressively difficult texts. Through guided reading, learners discover how to participate in each aspect of the reading process and utilize that literacy skill across all teaching situations.

This ebook offers a complete guided reading lesson plan for first-grade students. It is inspired by the book Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? by Bill Martin Jr., though any other picture book may also be utilized. The length of the lesson is around 30 minutes, though it may change based on class size.

MINI-LEÇON/ATELIER DE LECTURE : FAIRE DES CONNEXIONS/LIENS | TEXTE/SOI/MONDE

By French Made Fun!

Vos élèves exploreront la stratégie de faire des liens et apprendront à intégrer cette stratégie dans leur lecture. Ce document couvre deux semaines d'atelier de lecture.


⁕⁕ Please see the preview for a full view of this document, with details in English. These descriptions and this product are entirely in French. ⁕⁕


Cette ressource est conçue pour les élèves de la 4e à la 8e année qui manquent cette stratégie et ont besoin d'aide pour s'investir et s'engager dans leur lecture. Mes produits proposent beaucoup d'apprentissage pratique et une approche ludique.
Dans cette ressource, vous découvrirez 34 diapositives de contenu adaptées à vos "grands". Pas de polices enfantines ou ridicules. Pas de clip-arts bébé. Pas de mots croisés ou d'activités de remplissage. Je vais droit au but et vous donne tout ce dont vous avez réellement besoin pour progresser.

  • 9 organisateurs graphiques
  • 6 tableaux d'ancrage (à imprimer ou à utiliser comme affiches numériques pour les activités)
  • 8 textes modèles (Pas besoin de chercher des lectures partagées dans votre bibliothèque. Ils sont tous ici !)
  • 6 mini-leçons (Je vais même jusqu'à écrire vos paroles et vous fournir tous les exemples, questions de guidage, et prompts pour vous garder sur la bonne voie !)

Voici les stratégies que je couvre dans cette ressource de 30 pages :

  • Connexions texte-à-soi (Les élèves découvriront comment connecter leurs lectures à leur vie personnelle et à leurs expériences passées grâce à des pratiques modelées et partagées, des affiches et des organisateurs graphiques pour organiser leurs pensées.)
  • Connexions texte-à-texte (Les élèves découvriront comment connecter leur lecture à une autre qu'ils ont faite et établir des similitudes et des différences grâce à des pratiques modelées et partagées, des affiches et des organisateurs graphiques pour organiser leurs pensées.)
  • Connexions texte-à-monde (Les élèves découvriront comment se connecter aux grands événements mondiaux, aux personnes et aux faits historiques grâce à des pratiques modelées et partagées, des affiches et des organisateurs graphiques pour organiser leurs pensées.)
  • La chaîne des connexions (Les élèves assembleront ce qu'ils ont appris dans cette activité kinesthésique où ils construiront des connecteurs en chaîne avec leurs camarades de classe grâce à des pratiques modelées et partagées, des affiches et des organisateurs graphiques pour organiser leurs pensées.)
  • La toile des connexions (Les élèves travailleront en groupes pour créer une grande carte mentale sur du papier affiche afin de construire autant de connexions que possible avec un texte donné.)
  • La casse-tête des connexions (Les élèves travailleront en groupes pour lire des extraits d'un texte plus long et comparer leurs connexions avec d'autres groupes pour trouver des similitudes.)

Planifier des mini-leçons efficaces nécessite beaucoup de temps et d'efforts pour créer des affiches, des textes modèles, des exemples, rédiger vos petites lectures partagées sur des post-it et planifier des activités de différenciation. Cette ressource couvrira tout cela pour vous pendant deux semaines. Alors détendez-vous et profitez de la conduite d'une mini-leçon tout en regardant vos élèves adorer le cours de français.

Guided Reading Lesson Plan & Activities for Grade 3

By Bright Classroom Ideas Marketplace

Once they have mastered literacy skills in earlier grades, 3rd graders develop into more proficient and self-reliant readers. Third grade reading emphasizes helping children learn to think and discuss their reading in more profound and detailed manners. Students engage with lengthier texts, and the majority read fictional chapter books.

Numerous reading lessons for 3rd graders focus on discussing and writing about the meanings, lessons, and key concepts found in texts. Third graders are prompted to form their own opinions regarding the books they read and to talk about their thoughts on a text or the characters. Series books play a vital role in 3rd grade, as they enable students to link various books and discuss the development of specific characters. As third graders delve into a wider variety of books and extended texts, they enhance their reading fluency and acquire skills to read, define, and pronounce intricate words.

This lesson plan will help you teach guided reading to your grade 3 students.
