When the leaves turn colors and days become shorter and cooler, you know it’s time for the famous Willard Intermediate Title 1 Scavenger Hunt!
This is the first of three Family Nights that the Title 1 reading teachers host. These events are intended to provide our students and their families with an evening of fun reading activities. Please join us for this first Family Night, a fluency scavenger hunt. This activity will have families searching the halls of WIS and reading aloud together.
The focus of this activity is oral reading and fluency. There are several aspects to this: word recognition and decoding, rate, expression, attending to punctuation, and reading with meaning. Students are encouraged to practice oral reading at home several times a week. Even a seemingly short amount of time, five to ten minutes, of oral reading daily can contribute to significant improvements. Family support and encouragement in this can really help boost reading skills.
We are looking forward to seeing you on Oct. 20. !
