Wow!! YOur first big takeaway just now settled with me. As I teach third grade and feel so defeated and helpless sometimes trying to catch my kiddos up. Now realizing that they my not get caught up is sad. That won’t discourage me from trying 🙂

I agree with your point about finding the time in our reading block and still doing what our districts ask of us. I will need to find a way. I guess it will take further reading and understanding and maybe it won’t take as much time as we think or maybe it will be something I can do with just my strugglers at the back table.

ParticipantFebruary 25, 2023 at 1:55 pm #29791. It is important to have a scope and sequence to make sure you have a systematic way of teaching and that all skills are being taught.
2. It is important to explicitly teach those skills on the scope and sequence and not leave them by chance.
3. Making sure that you are teaching decoding and language comprehension at the same time to create a reader.Questions I still have are:
How do I fit it all in?
What is best to do in whole group and small group?-

ParticipantMarch 6, 2023 at 10:55 pm #3035I agree that having a scope and sequence will ensure that your instruction is both explicit and systematic. It will also help you to be able to adjust the degree of explicit and systematic instruction throughout the weeks/months to ensure that students are getting enough practice to solidify the information in their minds.

ParticipantMarch 6, 2023 at 10:45 pm #3033Take a few moments to reflect upon your learning. What are your three main takeaways?
Reading instruction must be explicit and systematic because learning to read is not natural in the way learning to speak is. We must be sure that all the strands of Scarborough’s rope are securely in place to help readers with all they need to become fluent readers. We must help readers early, because the chances to help them dwindle quickly.

ParticipantMarch 14, 2023 at 4:04 pm #3064My three main takeaway is that everyone learns the same way.. Reading instruction must be systematic and explicit. Reading instruction begins with letter recognition and sound and builds to form words.

ParticipantMarch 24, 2023 at 2:18 pm #3159My three main takeaways from the Intro to Science of Reading that all reading instruction must be both systematic and explicit. All reading instruction can begin with some sort of letter recognition to be able to build up to be able to form the words that can be read. I also was able to learn that Scarborough’s rope is a great method to use to be able to build more fluent readers. I was also able to learn that we need to start to help readers that are struggling early to be able to decrease the chances of a struggling reader.

ParticipantMarch 25, 2023 at 5:41 pm #3178Takeaways:
1. Reading is not a natural skill.
2. Therefore, instruction must explicit and systematic. Scope and sequence helps with this.
3.Scarborough’s rope is an incredible tool to use to pinpoint deficiencies and know where to focus.
Sadly, there is much data to support that if students are not proficient in reading by end of 3rd grade, they may never be.
Small group instruction is critical for strugglers.-
marialignos
ParticipantJune 24, 2023 at 6:36 am #3795I agree. Students that struggle with reading must be identified early on and given the extra instruction they need. I have noticed that if they are not proficient readers by the third grade, even the second grade, it affects every aspect of their school day. It especially affects their self esteem and relationships with their peers.

ParticipantMay 10, 2023 at 12:07 pm #35801. What struck me the most is that we all learn to read in the same way, through the same mental process.
2. For this reason, we must be clear in giving instructions so as not to confuse students when starting their process.
3. They understand that reading is not a natural ability, therefore, like any other ability, it must be developed and worked on in order to fully master it. -

ParticipantMay 30, 2023 at 5:58 pm #3697My three takeaways are the following:
1. Everyone learns to read the same way, which is great to know for students who struggle at first, since it means that you have the tools to help them succeed.
2. Instruction should focus on both word recognition and language comprehension simultaneously, which means that you should give students the change to practice language comprehension even if they aren’t strong decoders yet.
3. Word recognition should become automatic for students at a certain point, which we can assess throughout their skill development.
My question right now would be: Are there specific language comprehension skills that we can focus on first as teachers of young students that support their ability to decode text?

ParticipantJune 24, 2023 at 6:27 am #3794The three points I took away from this chapter is that students need both explicit and systematic instruction to become proficient readers, reading is not a natural skill as is walking and talking, and everyone learns to read in the same way.
My question is how do we teach students to read sight words when the word is not spelled as it is supposed to sound? For example the word pretty,phonologically it should be spelled pritty.

ParticipantDecember 4, 2023 at 1:02 pm #6706The three points I took away from this chapter are that students need both explicit and systematic instruction to become a proficient reader, reading isn’t a natural skill and everyone learns to read in the same way. How the brain connects decoding and language skills is amazing and the diagrams help put that into perspective for a teacher.
Question: How do we help students who are not making those connections especially if they are past primary age? -

I will continue to try!Marialignos I can relate to what you are saying. I see the same thing at fifth grade. Students are so affected by not being able to read and understand like their peers and it totally affects their school day everyday.

MemberNovember 19, 2024 at 6:37 am #15042Reflecting on the science of reading, my main takeaways are the importance of phonics, the development of comprehension skills, and the need for early intervention. I still wonder about the integration of these strategies in diverse educational settings. For help, you can always buy an essay to streamline your work.

ParticipantFebruary 9, 2023 at 4:07 pm #2847My three main takeaways; I was surprised to learn that reading is not a natural skill. That we all can learn the same. Teaching in the older grades I just thought if I keep my kiddos reading over and over they will get better. However, I haven’t given them the tools to help them get better. It has been frustrating to me. Then see Decoding X Language Comprehension = Reading Comprehension. Also, seeing Scarbarough’s Reading Rope I realized that I need the tools and then I can teach my kiddos in a more effective way. So, my question is how to I teach decoding. I know as a teacher you would think I would have learned, but in third grade students should be reading, so there has not been training in the basics.

ParticipantFebruary 25, 2023 at 2:02 pm #2981I too found the Scarborough’s reading rope helpful. I watched a video of her explaining how she came up with it and it was amazing. It is so important that we include all the ingredients necessary to build fluent readers.

ParticipantSeptember 7, 2023 at 2:39 pm #3984I was also surprised that The Science of Reading that it is not a natural skill. And that if you want your students to learn how to read , I , Gloria Rael, I need to make sure that my preschoolers and if I teach kindergarteners, to make sure that any problems with reading is fixed, before the student is in second grade. It is very crucial for the students. Another aspect that caught my attention is prevention is easier than interventions. I also made a note of this: everyone learns to read the same way. I will make sure that my students get the love of reading. It is an open channel for students to learn about soo many subjects. Gloria Rael

ParticipantSeptember 13, 2023 at 2:04 pm #3991I am currently teaching in a preschool ages 3 to 5 year olds. I have noticed that the preschoolers that is their second year in the preschool know at least a few letters and sounds and their second year it is easier for them to remember the letters and the sounds, and it is easier for them to continue with their learning. What I am making it a must is for me to daily review the letters and their sounds so that at the end of the school year most of the students are knowledgeable of the letter and the sounds. In that way, the preschoolers will be ready for KIndergarten and be able to continue the reading process. I feel confident that with the basic skills children will succeed in the following school years. Gloria Rael

ParticipantFebruary 25, 2023 at 1:57 pm #2980I too found it interesting that all students learn to read the same way. It is so important that we are using the strategies based on SOR to reach all of our students including the 20% that are dyslexia and undiagnosed.

ParticipantMarch 6, 2023 at 10:52 pm #3034I feel it is so important that, like doctors who are always “practicing” their art, we don’t rest on what we think we know. We must be life-long learners. Because of this, I think that it is so important for us, as teachers, to keep up with the science in those scientific articles you mentioned so that we can make sure we are teaching our students with the most recent information available.
