Whole Class Product:

Grade level texts, and comprehensions to be introduced, and read by all students in the lass

Differentiated Product:

Each student to be allowed a text of their choice that they can read with proficiency, and accuracy

Process:

This lesson plan will start with applying grade level phonics and word analysis skills in decoding words when reading texts and comprehensions

Diagnostic (Pre) Assessment:

For the readiness of the class, students will demonstrate their ability to read sentences constructed in the class with sufficient accuracy and proficiency. They will then proceed to read short paragraphs before reading full texts, stories, or comprehensions.

Whole Class Checklist:

Students are able to read various or multiple sentences, paragraphs, and texts without difficulties

Differentiated Checklist:

Students are able to read a given sentence, paragraph, and text in prose, with proficiency, and accuracy

Activator (Context for Learning)

All students encounter different reading materials in their academic or home life. Your interest should be drawn to trying to understand what is written in the different materials. This can only be achieved through reading the material, making reading a key process to understanding texts or comprehensions

Develop Strategy and Self-Regulation: Introduction of Strategy

Develop Background Knowledge-I will provide you with a list of sentences, text paragraphs, and full texts or comprehensions for reading

Discuss Strategy-We will read the sentences, text paragraphs, and comprehensions together before you read alone

Review-Each of you will retreat and read a sentence, text paragraph, or comprehension

Practice Memorization-You will internalize these reading sentences and paragraphs to strengthen your reading ability

Obtain Commitment-I will collaborate with all students to support self-regulation, but this will be a fading support in identifying abstract nouns.

Goal-Read with proficiency, and accuracy multiple texts provided

Summarizer-We will identify, and list together comprehensions that are suitable to your grade level before I allow you to read alone to perfect your reading skills

Model-Think Aloud:

Think of all sentences, and stories that you have seen and can read

Think of the stories as examples of comprehensions that you can practice your reading skills

We Do-Guided Practice (Generalizing):

Let us now read together some of the sentences, and comprehensions you have identified together

Let us ensure that each one of us can accurately decode the sentences, and comprehensions, while consistently monitoring comprehensions

Each one of us should read with sufficient accuracy and fluency to support the comprehension

We should also ensure we read the fourth grade-level texts with purpose and understanding

We should all also read with proficiency, accuracy, appropriate rate, and expression on successive readings.

While reading the comprehensions to understand, we should use context to confirm or self-correct word recognition and understand that rereading is necessary to boost our reading skill

I will first read out loud a sentence or paragraph before allowing you to read to know what I expect from you as we read the different texts

Example of a sentence to read;

· The teacher provides scaffolding support or prompting to help the learner read a whole sentence successfully.

You-Independent Practice:

Now it is your turn to read the sentence shown above

Ensure you do not stammer, but read with proficiency, and accuracy

Summarizer:

Each students will list and read at least one sentence or comprehension to proof sufficient accuracy of at least 80%, and proficiency in reading

Assessment:

Through common reading assessments in class, students should demonstrate their ability to read with proficiency and accuracy at a high reading rate grade level sentences, and comprehensions

Affect:

By the end of the lesson on reading comprehensions, students will have gained a lot of proficiency in reading comprehensions independently, and proficiency in purposes for reading and understanding the texts
