Shared Reading - CSI

Today in Room 5 we started our CSI shared reading program. We discovered that the following things trip us up when we are reading:

• hard or new words

• making sense of difficult punctuation

• reading content that we are unfamiliar with 

• when we realise we don't understand

• when the topic is boring

After discussing this, we realised we currently solve reading problem by:

• chunking 

• sounding out

• re-reading

• using tools/define or online dictionary

• searching the text for details

• searching the text for clues (making inference) 

I can't to see the progress Room 5 students are going to make as they learn to become great reading detectives!
