Over the last two weeks we've focused on our independent reading. We've been using The Daily Five to increase our reading stamina.This system teaches the children how to choose books that are suitable for them, how to find a good place to read, and how to get started straight away.
This week encourage your child to choose a book at home using the IPICK Good-Fit books method shown below. Over the week they can 'read the pictures', 'read the words' and 'retell the story' with you.
IPICK Good Fit Books
I select a book and look it over, inside and out
Purpose - I choose a book that is suitable for the purpose (in this case something I want to share)
Interest - I chose a book that interests me
Comprehend - Do I understand what I am reading?
Know - Do I know most of the words?
If I can say yes to these questions, this is a Good-Fit book for me.
