Vocabulary, Discussions, Strategies, etc.
These are some ideas we came up with during our RTI sessions. As we come up with more ideas, we'll update this list.
- Look at the whole word. Don't look at the first part and then guess.
- Make sure the word makes sense in context.
- Try and sound the word out; if you recognize parts of the word, say those. The word may come to you as you say what you know.
- Take your time and read fluently, not quickly.
- Remember one goal of reading is comprehension. How can you understand what you are reading if you don't know the words? Never skip over a word you don't know unless you plan to come back to it after you've looked the entire sentence.
- Read only the words on the pages, don't put your own words in.
