Vos élèves ont du mal à résoudre les mots complexes et techniques? Ces mini-leçons de lecture se concentrent principalement sur la résolution de vocabulaire complexe qui tend à apparaître dans ces niveaux avancés.

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

J'ai remarqué que mes grands élèves de 6e année ont tendance à se décourager face au vocabulaire scientifique plus spécifique qu'ils découvrent lors de leurs recherches et dans la lecture de textes scientifiques - ils perdent leur enthousiasme, leur confiance - et une fois que cela se produit, nous sommes tous fichus ! J'ai créé cette ressource pour ces élèves qui se sentent découragés par le vocabulaire complexe, afin de les rediriger et de leur donner la confiance nécessaire pour continuer à progresser dans leur lecture - même lorsque cela devient difficile.

À mesure que les élèves grandissent, ils ont toujours besoin de stratégies de lecture; mais celles-ci sont très différentes de ce que l'on voit dans les premières années du primaire.

Les mini-leçons de cette unité se concentrent sur :

• Utiliser les indices de contexte: Lire autour d'un mot, relire une phrase et développer des stratégies efficaces pour traverser des phrases difficiles.
• La décomposition des mots: Se concentrer sur les préfixes, les suffixes et les racines.
• Les familles de mots: Trouver la racine d'un mot et l'utiliser pour comprendre des mots complexes.
• Les mots composés: Analyser les mots composés.

Chaque mini-leçon vous fournira des activités (généralement en paires) utilisant des cartes pour trier ou travailler sur une stratégie spécifique, des clés de réponse, un plan de leçon détaillé (suffisamment simple pour être laissé à un enseignant suppléant), des extraits de lecture avec questions de compréhension (avec une fiche de suivi de lecture pour évaluer un élève individuellement pendant que ses pairs lisent de manière autonome) et, surtout, des affiches vibrantes et captivantes pour offrir à vos élèves une visualisation de la stratégie en question. Je préfère projeter mes tableaux d'ancrage pour qu'ils puissent les voir numériquement, et imprimer de petites copies pour que mes élèves les aient à portée de main dans leurs classeurs. Le choix vous appartient entièrement.

Vous en voulez plus ? Voici quelques ressources de mini-leçons en FRANÇAIS à déCouvrir :

• Écriture: Générer les idées
• Écriture: Endurance et motivation
• Écriture: La structure et la fluidité
• Écriture: Améliorer le choix de mots
• Écriture: Introductions & Conclusions
• Lecture: Solutionner les mots
• Lecture: La visualisation
• Lecture: Faire des liens
• Lecture: Connaissances antérieures
• Lecture: Faire des prédictions
• Lecture: Faire des inférences
• Lecture: Informations clés
• Lecture: Stratégies de réparation
