Students begin their journey as readers with simple phonic lessons, but even with the apparent ability to read, many grow and struggle to garner meaning from text – a skill that goes far beyond identifying words.

Description

Have you ever glanced at a piece of mail and known exactly what it was without reading the full text? That skill is part of your schema, the experiences you’ve had and inferences you can make to give meaning to text. Reading is a skill that encompasses far more than phonemic awareness. Learn how to guide your gifted students to create dynamic meaning from their readings.
In this 1-hour course, you will learn to:
  • Understand gifted students’ unique social and emotional needs
  • Teach students to draw from schema and text to create meaning
  • Use running records to hone in on reading problemss

  1. Lyndi – CORPUS CHRISTI ISD (verified owner) –

    This was good for understanding guided reading.

  2. Rebecca – Pilot (verified owner) –

    I think that this was a good course. The video stopped in the middle, but the notes allowed me to continue with it. I will say the beginning made it difficult to know what the course as about and I was almost turned off by the speaker as she seemed to be leaning to the GT kids are better than everyone view that I have seen in many GT trainings. I really liked the examples and explanations of the “Read to, Read with, and Read by.” I already do the Read to process she uses, so it was nice to see it in a training.

  3. Josefa – EDINBURG CISD (verified owner) –

    Great course to review what guided reading is all about.

  6. Anese – ECTOR COUNTY ISD (verified owner) –

    This is an excellent course that shows the big picture of what guided reading is all about. It also confirms that fluency plus comprehension together along with context clues and purpose for reading is the foundation of a guided reading session.

    Great
