Everyday our red, yellow and blue readers have a guided reading lesson with a Pouako.
We see the importance of students seeing the connection between reading and writing and therefore have a big book each day, which is our inspiration for writing. We also have a writing support group who work with our TA everyday (Blake, Zac, Mason A., Tanner, Alicia, Alexa, Lachlan, Mason L., Dominic).
During this support group they are practicing fine motor skills (figure 8’s and handwriting). In Creative Exploration time there are lots of opportunities for students to be immersed in literacy.
We also do targeted 15 minute phonics sessions daily. These are run after our 15 minutes silent reading or pouako supported reading groups.
Reading aloud to the class from a chapter or picture book is also an important part of our daily reading program.
Tanner, Sophia and Alexa with Pou Bex for Raukura Readers 3 times a week. Dominic was also supported twice a week in ESOL with Pou Bex until in left in week 7.
So what growth have we seen so far?
Dominic moved reading levels from Blue 1 to Green 1 before he left in week 8. Tanner and Sophia both moved levels from yellow 1 to blue 1. We have almost completed the running records for the remaining Year 2 and 3 students. So we can analyse that data and see our focus areas for each student from there.
