We believe the most important ingredient for a successful reading program in grades K-5 are in place with an enthusiastic and organized teacher in the classroom.
However, the teacher needs some basic materials to make it work best.
1. Your district approved reading series (are you on the selection committee?) 2. An understanding of assessment and intervention 3. A leveled reading library, and general fiction library for Sustained Silent Reading (If your Principal does not support SSR, work with other teachers to get him/her to understand it is a research based way to improve academic achievement.) 4. Student Journal Kit, for reading response, graphic organizers, journaling. 5. A Dictionary Kit (see below) 6. Some word games, and a Word Game Kit for your literacy center (see below) 7. Testwords at several levels so students can move among the levels as they improve. 8. Graphic Organizers - printables (free) 9. A list of Internet resources to bookmark on your classroom computer stations. |
