Week Two Highlights

OK, we are moving into the Wilson text and Goodman's Reading Miscue Inventory. I feel like finally - a window into what it looks like as children start to learn to read!! This is really helpful!!

What stands out so far
  • That the 4 reading skills shouldn't be taught in isolation
  • Listening to students read without interruption provides a window on the reading process (pg. 3 Goodman)
  • There is a single reading process and it is the same for proficient and non-proficient readers (pg. 5 Goodman)
  • There are no reading errors, only miscues that give the listener a window into the reader's thought processes
