CH 11 WK

p. 231 Suggestions for students who lack word recognition skills

My biggest fear/weakness is, at this point, I struggle with helping students with word recognition skills. I just find it kind of hard to describe how I read a certain word besides just saying sound it out! Beers four suggestions help me have a starting place of when I am trying to help a struggling reader. Their knowledge about letters and sounds are very important, and I can't assume that they are fluent in this area by the time they are in my classroom. I think a great way of helping students like this is by separating them into groups with similar reading problems! This chapter was very helpful for someone like me who is worried about this kind of teaching!
