We have added another reading strategy: 1. Look at the pictures (Readers use the pictures to determine if what they read makes sense). 2. Check to see if it makes sense. (Readers use the pictures to determine if what they read makes sense). Coming up: 3. Get your mouth ready (Picture cues alone will not help us-readers initially concentrate on beginning letters of unknown words). 4. Does it Look Right (By looking through the word from left to right, readers check their predictions about the word. They say yes or no based on the letter-sounds they see). Reading the Fly Guy books and some other grade level appropriate books, we learned how to look at the picture but then check back to make sure that what we said made sense and matched what we are supposed to read! For example their was a picture of a jar but we said bottle. We went back to the word and checked-b and j don't make the same sound. So we tried again and got jar. We will continue to build on our strategies for the next few weeks (sometimes combining more than one).
