Thoughts, Questions, Connections to
Methods Classes We have talked about the use of
non-fiction texts in reading as
well as language arts. We have
talked about the different styles
of non-fiction writing in
language arts too.
Students are able to create their
own ideas based on prior
knowledge just by looking at the
pictures. This helps set a
purpose for the read aloud.
We have talked about text to
self, text to text and text to
world connections in both
reading and language arts. The
teacher has the students show
instead of share their connection
during the story so that it is not
disruptive to the other students.
We have learned in reading that
think alouds are very important
for comprehension
development. It helps the
students ask themselves these
comprehension questions when
reading on their own.
Daybooks are a big part of our
language arts course as well. I
was able to see many
similarities in the use of
daybooks.
This relates to the different
reading methods we have
discussed in our reading course.
We have learned about the
importance of schema in
reading. Students need to be
able to activate their schema
when reading text.
In our reading course, we have
talked about demonstrating
metacognition strategies.
Metacognition helps with selfknowledge, task- knowledge and
self-monitoring.
