 Independent Reading!

Use the questions/ prompts on the Discourse Card

See pages resource to start a conversation about something the
105 and 106
student has read. You may talk about a text the student
of this
packet. read in one of the lessons above, or anything else the
student is reading.

Encourage daily reading. And remember, reading isn’t just about the books on the
shelves—it’s about anything around you with letters! Turn on the closed captioning feature
on your TV or read catalogs that come in the mail. The backs of cereal boxes work, too, as do
directions to board games!

Running out of stuff to read? Grab some sticky notes, and label household objects, or
make up new, silly names for things! Communicating with sticky notes, instead of talking,
is fun, too—start with a half hour and see if you can go all afternoon. Reading is everywhere!

Don’t worry about right/wrong answers when you talk about text—the important thing
is that you and your student share a reading experience and have fun!
