December Blog
So... I am a little late on my December post...that month is just crazy!!! I hope you all had a nice break and are back into the routine. My question if for those readers that continue to struggle. I am currently working with some kids that do not know all of their letter sounds so we are working on sounds and blending. I feel like I have been working with them both in intervention and within the classroom on this skill. Do you start to move on and switch up the skills and startegies with your struggling readers or do you continue to work on these skills until mastery and then move on. There is so much to cover with these students, but I don't want to bore them either with the same skill focus.

That does seem like a struggle! Have you been using the book Kristin gave us to help?
ReplyDeleteSorry I am responding so late to this! I think this is a hard one. I see the same thing with some of my kiddo's. I am finding that trying a variety of different ways to teach sounds has worked for me. For example, using the smartboard, playing sound games, songs with sounds, using the ABC chart, etc. I do get my kids started on reading when they have most of their sounds, in hope that the rest of the sounds will come.
