Reading Strategies - Ask!
“Ask” Reading Strategy - These strategies we learn to help us decode words. Eventually, we want each student to do this without prompting, but to start out they need some guidance :).
- Does it look right?
- If a student reads this sentence: Over the flowers. As “Over the grass.” I would ask them - “Does that look right? You said ‘grass,’ but that word starts with the letter f or the /f/ sound.”
- Does it sound right?
- If a student reads this sentence: Who wants to play with me?. As “Who want to play with me?”.” I would ask them - “Does that sound right? You said “want,” but it sounded funny or weird. Do we talk like that?”
- Does it make sense?
- If a student reads this sentence: No, the elephant cannot go in. As “No, the elephant can go in.” I would ask them - “Does that make sense? You said ‘no, but then you said the elephant can go in the pool?’”
