Building background knowledge in content will help students be successful. Without the content knowledge students will not be successful in learning strategies and skills. #READ4384Stephenville #backgroundknowledge

Word consciousness teaches students to be aware and interested in words and their meaning. Teaching how to use context clues can help students with their word consciousness. #READ4383Stephenville #wordconsciousness

Teach comprehension explicitly by teaching students skills and strategies to help them be successful. #READ4384Stephenville #comprehension

Teaching morphology helps students reading comprehension and fluency. Start teaching students young while using Greek and Latin root words to help them. #READ4384Stephenville #morphology

[Emily Orton @OrtonEmily_]

Knowing Greek and Latin roots will help students with word instruction. #READ4384Stephenville #wordinstruction

[Emily Orton @OrtonEmily_]

A strategy I have used to help students with syllabication is a reading pyramid. Break apart the word into each individual syllable, start with saying the first one, then progressively add more. Pencil tapping or any form of movement helps too! #READ4384Stephenville #syllables

[Emily Orton @OrtonEmily_]

The three components of reading fluency are rate, accuracy, and prosody! Practice reading can lead to better fluency which leads to better comprehension of text! Read read read! #READ4384 #Stephenville #fluency

[Emily Orton @OrtonEmily_]

A great way to help ELL students learn is with graphics and the “I do, we do, you do” method. This helps students ease into their instruction and feel supported. #READ4384Stephenville #ELL #STR

[Emily Orton @OrtonEmily_]

#READ4384 I love this idea about teaching phonics. This would be so good for students with dyslexia!
