How$do$I$read$with$my$students?$
In"this"guide"we"offer"you"many"options"and"ideas"for"how"you"can"read"with"your"students."There"is"no"
right"or"wrong"way"to"do"this."It"is"important"to"remember"2"things:"
1. Students"acquire"language"through"comprehensible"input."They"need"to"be"reading"and"it"needs"
to"be"understandable"to"them.""
2. Students"acquire"faster"and"better"that"which"is"pleasurable"to"them."Try"to"make"the"reading"
time"as"fun"as"possible."Keep"it"light."Don’t"pile"on"the"worksheets."Don’t"make"everything"highS
stakes."Pick"and"choose"from"the"items"in"this"guide;"don’t"try"to"do"it"all!""
$
Just$read$
Many"teachers"simply"translate"the"text"with"the"students."Some"teachers"play"the"audio"CD"as"students"
follow"along"in"their"own"text."Some"teachers"have"students"read"together"in"small"groups."The"authors"
of"this"Teacher’s"Guide"would"advocate"reading"in"a"variety"of"different"ways."You"may"even"find"that"
some"classes"enjoy"reading"as"a"class"while"others"enjoy"reading"silently"on"their"own.""
"
Círculos$de$la$literatura$
Literature"circles"are"commonly"used"in"elementary"reading"classes."They"are"one"option"you"may"use"
when"reading"with"your"students."The"basic"concept"is"that"students"are"placed"in"groups,"and"each"
group"member"is"responsible"for"a"single"task."Following"the"reading"of"the"chapter,"the"group"comes"
together"for"a"discussion."
Some"teachers"have"each"group"read"a"different"novel"and"complete"the"literature"
circles"for"the"entire"book,"rotating"tasks"amongst"the"group"members.""
Feel"free"to"experiment"with"this,"there"is"no"right"or"wrong"way."This"is"just"
one"more"way"to"provide"your"students"with"a"bit"of"autonomy"and"variety."You"
might"choose"ONE"chapter"for"the"entire"class"to"read"literature"circleSstyle,"OR"
assign"a"different"group"to"each"chapter"of"the"book."
Assessment"Options:""
•
•
•
Have"a"group"present"each"chapter"to"the"class"
Have"each"group"videotape"their"discussions"
All"groups"have"their"discussions"at"the"same"time"while"teacher"walks"around"and"observes"
