Things are going great in Readers' Workshop. One of the things that we have been working on are strategies that help to clarify confusion when reading. Here are the "fix up" strategies that we have learned in class. These are great tips to remind your child of when you are reading together at home.
Fix Up Strategies
* Stop and think about what you have already read.
* Reread.
* Adjust your reading rate: slow down or speed up.
* Try and connect the text to something you read in another book, what you know about
the world, or to something you have experienced.
* Visualize
* Reflect on what you have read.
* Look at key words, bold print, italicized words, and puntuation.
* Notice patterns in the text structure.
The next time you and your child come to a confusing part in the book, try one (or more) of these strategies to clear up the confusion.
