Video Learning Notes
In this lesson, students learn to self-select grade-appropriate texts and read independently for a sustained period of time. Through modeling, guided practice, and reflection, they develop foundational language skills that increase reading motivation, fluency, and comprehension. Students practice choosing books that interest them and match their reading ability, read quietly and attentively, and share their reading experiences. These skills align with TEKS.ELA.3.05 and build a strong foundation for lifelong reading habits.
Learning Goals
- Students will be able to choose grade-appropriate texts independently for reading.
- Students will read self-selected texts independently for a sustained period of time without interruption.
- Students will explain their choice of text and describe their reading experience using grade-appropriate language.
