Session 6: Reading-discovery – The meeting with the monkey

 

develop reader behavior:

look for clues (context, image, known words, letters, syllables, punctuation, syntactic structure previously worked on, decoding, etc.)

formulate hypotheses, verify them, make sense.

First, ask the students about what has just been displayed:

Where does this text come from?

Who wrote this ?

What is he talking about ?

 

Then take an interest in writing,

let the pupils propose what they have found. To justify.

Use a color code to identify globally recognized words in the class repertoire, isolated letters, arcs under read syllables and decoded words, small tool words, punctuation, etc.

 

When this research phase is complete,

propose a linear reading of the text, rely on the discoveries.

For unknown words, highlight what is known to the students, anticipate and check with knowledge of the code and the meaning.

Have the text fully reread (by a beginner reader, a few volunteers or the class group), provide help if necessary so as not to break the dynamic.

End with a masterful reading.

 

In the following days,

carry out proofreading games in order to work on meaning, phonology, technical language, etc.

either in groups (work on the reference text) or in a directed workshop (differentiated work) or individually (reading and writing sheets adapted to the possibilities of the pupils).
