7:00-7:45 Morning Carpool

I absolutely loved doing carpool in the
mornings! I loved being able to greet the
students with a smiling face as they first
arrived at school and being able to wish their
parents a great day. I especially loved seeing
the students in my class!

7:30-7:40 Waited for students outside of
their classroom
7:45-7:55 Both students worked on the
Student Interest Survey. I helped the
students as they thought about their
answers to some of the questions when they
were struggling.
7:05-7:25 Prepare for students
7:30-7:35 Wait for students
7:40-7:55 I had both students complete the
Hearing and Recording Sounds in Words
Assessment. Then we read Five Little
Monkeys Sitting in a Tree as an interactive
read-aloud. The students clapped the
syllables for each time that I read the word
monkey or crocodile. They absolutely loved
doing this and would have done it again with
another book but we ran out of time.
7:05-7:25 Prepare for students
7:30-7:35 Wait for students
7:40-7:55 I read Arthurs Pet Business to
the students. The students tapped the table
every time they heard the A sound being
read. This day did not go as well as the first
day. They did not enjoy this book as much.

the pages of the books: Its Pumpkin Time

and Out of the Ocean. This was an
opportunity for the students to practice
reading fluently and it helped them build
confidence. The first book, I had already
chosen some vocabulary we were going to
talk about and work on as we read the book,
and we talked about those words when we
got to them. Then for the second book, when
the students got to a word that they were
not able to read right away, they slowly
sounded it out and then patted out the
number of phonemes in the word on the
table. They loved doing this. It really seemed
to help them when they came to a difficult
word.

7:10-7:25 Prepare for students

7:30-7:40 Wait for students
7:45 7:58 I started off by reading the
poem, Tree House by Shel Silverstien to
model fluent reading. Then I tested one
student with the letter recognition test, while
the other picked a poem to read to us after.
Then we switched roles, and after the test,
each student practiced reading poems. We
talked about rhyming words and how we can
recognize words that rhyme. The students
were able to practice their fluency as they
read the poems, and they enjoyed talking
about what the poems were saying.
