Reading Comprehension & Response Paragraph Writing
In this weekly class, students will practice reading texts and crafting well-written responses, all under the guidance of a published author and experienced teacher!
Each week, the teacher will display and read aloud a paragraph from an article or book. Together, the class will discuss the paragraph, noting details and purpose! The teacher will then pose a question similar to one students might find on a short answer portion of a test. Together, the class will work through structuring a response paragraph that answers the question.
Then, it's the students' turn! The teacher will display and read aloud a second paragraph from the same article or book, then give learners five to ten minutes to read, analyze, and create their own responses. Students are invited to share their paragraphs at the end of class to receive constructive feedback from the teacher, so they can continue to grow and improve as writers and readers!
Examples of class articles:
- "How can polar bears survive longer in changing climate?" from Science Journal for Kids
- "The Sky Is Not The Limit" from Time for Kids
- "Population Rise" from Time for Kids
- "Bessie Coleman" from National Geographic Kids
