Reading Is Fun

Starting on Wednesday the 15th of May we started doing some awesome readers theatre. Readers theatre is a programme that's like doing a play but we are practising our fluency and having fun at the same time. In readers theatre we get to get into our reading groups, that are Concentrating Coconuts, the Unknown, Reading Robots and the Go Girls. Groups sometimes get teamed up to do the exciting stories Mrs B gives us. In readers theatre there are a few habits of mind involved to make it successful like thinking interdependently when we are choosing parts and sorting it out. We have to communicate with clarity and precision when we are saying our parts and managing impulsivity to stay focused while you are doing it so you know when its your turn to come in with your part. There are many more too. Our whole class got together to form criteria about what would make all of this successful.

  1. I think reading is fun too! Well, for me it depends on the book, and how I'm feeling. I'm looking forward to Quadblogging with you!
