Guided Reading Book Bags

Coming home this week will be your student's Guided Reading Book Bag. They will be coming home 2-3 times a week. The students and I will explain all about them...


Mekhi is holding his book bag. Please try to keep all the items inside the bag. They need to be sent back to the school the following day. Students will be responsible for turning them into a box in the morning next to their folders.



Inside will be a book at your student's own reading level. Jeremiah is showing us the book we practiced this week. Have your child read the story to you that evening.



Javon is showing us the mini books we made as a class that you will also find inside their bag. This mini book contains many strategies the student can use if they get stuck on a tough word.



After reading the story, you can ask the students some questions. Jordan is holding a list of comprehension questions that you can use if you get stuck for some new questions.



The students will be learning new words at their level during guided reading as well. Summer is showing us her sight word card ring. We will be adding the new words to their word rings. The new words will not be added on to their exhibition goal, but should be reviewed frequently because they are relevant to the stories they are reading throughout the trimester.



After you are done reading, asking questions, and practicing sight words please fill out the log with your child and initial the part you completed. Jamia is holing the log you will use. After it is completely filled out, I will put a new log in the bag and keep the old log on file.



We hope you enjoy your time reading with your child! Please let me know if you have any further questions!
