kids should be able to use these five tools to engage in the reading process. This will help them connect and engage with the reading.

The resulting typology has five parts: dramatizing, talking back, critiquing/controlling, inserting, and taking over
These are behaviors I have witnessed in the classroom during read-alouds. Sometimes constructive, and other times not.

6. Discussing the text.
Discussing the text is important because it gets the students engaged and helps them understand the text. The students can draw meaning, and inquire about the book. It gives students a chance to ask questions or have question be answered simply by talking about occurrences in the text.

In their review of the literature on oral lan guage development, Pinnell and Jaggar (2003) demonstrated the importance of read-alouds in the growth of oral language for both first- and second language speakers
I agree with it helping first and second language speakers. It is a good way for kids to learn new vocabulary and ideas.

he single most important activity for building knowledge required for eventual success in reading is reading aloud to children"
Reading aloud makes kids want to read more and it helps them engage in the story. with the brief conversations in-between pages, it could help students better grasp the reading. It also gets kids excited about reading.

Not everything can be fixed right away and even when teachers have the best plans in play to help students, it might not always be enough, a different approach may be needed.

he teacher and I thought we had given the stu S dents the skills to productively discuss a text, but as soon as we pulled away to let them lead the group on their own instances like the previous example became far too frequent. For example, in another group that I was videotaping, what started as a civil discussion about the book rapidly declined into chaos when one boy called a girl "retarded." I
For some kids, staying on task and using inappropriate language might be an issue. Kids need skills to know how to lead a discussion group properly. EDU307

rkshop period. Using the state-of-the-class chart depicted in Figure 3, the teacher is able to review individual student progress at a glance. When problems are found, such as a student's spending several days on one task with no apparent progress, then students are asked to make an appointment for an individ ual reading conference with the teacher. S
Teachers can see how the kids are progressing or if they are struggling throughout the activity.

e five main components of the RW structure are: (1) Sharing time, (2) the Mini lesson, (3) State-of-the-class, (4) Self-selected reading and response, and (5) Sharing time. Each of these components is depicted in Fig ure 1.
I agree with the steps mentioned. I feel as though that would work a lot better than having kids do a worksheet and read at the same time.

he classroom routine should invite children to write, respond, discuss, and become throughly involved with books?not to com plete worksheets in social isolation. T
I agree with this statement, kids should not have to read and complete a worksheet alone as their class activity. They should get time to actually focus and read the book and then they can discuss the content.

o talking during the first 10 minutes of SSR each day, during the Reading Workshop (RW) students must read, respond to reading, or update their personal reading re cords, no talking is permitted during the RW except in meetings of literature re sponse groups, RW time is not for completing home work or other school work, reading time and title logs must be up dated at the end of each RW period, restroom or drinking breaks are not permitted during the RW time except in case of emergencies, students are not permitted to disturb or interrupt a scheduled individual read ing conference. S
These are good techniques for getting students to have a productive reading session. When kids are focused on more tasks than one they can get confused and not fully pay attention to what the are reading. I think implementing these tools will help for a productive reading instruction class.

How can I make a space for his home language but also teach him the power inherent in Standard Englis
It is important to make sure that you as a teacher do not take away a child's home language. You have to support it but also teach standard english. As a teacher you need to find a way of making them both work.

's theory as a frame to ex- amine how children create meaning and invent themselves within a whole language classroom commu- nity
The way children create meaning can vary across students based on their home life, culture and where they come from. I think it is important, as a future teacher, to develop an understanding of your students ways their convert meaning to concepts.

hat Aaron had constructed an important un- derstanding of print that he could naturally use to help him in his own writing
I think that this is an important idea to recognize because even though what he is reading outside of school is not acceptable in school, it could be used as a basis of teaching for more academically appropriate reading. Using student;s prior knowledge is key to helping them advance in their learning.

hat every child who comes through the classroom door becomes our teac
I love this phrase because I believe that it can be a phrase that can argue the entire idea around teaching. That we are not just the the teacher but our students teach us just as much as we teach our students.

ad. Aaron was at the top of my "kids who are struggling" lis
I think that this line is really eye-opening. Because how can a student who is on the struggling readers list at school be so good at reading in their home environment. Can they? Well, I think it is important to recognize a student's home environment and how that student may be more successful within ideas and reading thing they are familiar of. But, how do we translate this into our classroom so they can also excel in the classroom environment?

2). Know your stu- dents' worlds because it is through their stories that you will under- stand the best way to te
This is my favorite sentence from the whole article and really captures what this is all about. As teachers, we are going to encounter many students who are different from us and we need to be willing to learn and incorporate them and their backgrounds into our lessons. If someone is not open minded and ready to make every child feel cared for an important than teaching is the wrong profession for them.

This sentence stuck out to me, as I believe that teachers need to be open minded and accepting. A teacher needs to be willing and allow their students to teach and push them.
