Personalized Instruction Time
During Personalized Instruction Time, reading strategies and
writing skills will be reinforced at your child’s level. During this time, we are
fortunate enough to guide our daily reading lessons with the McGraw Hill
Treasures reading program. The instruction focuses on grammar, vocabulary,
phonics, and reading strategies and skills. At this time your child will
be introduced to spelling words and will practice using these words for two
weeks through various spelling activities.
Please make sure your child is reading at least 20 minutes a night.
Throughout the year, your child will participate in small-group and whole group
activities. They will work independently in stations, as well as teacher-led guided reading
groups.
Core instruction also includes English Language Arts test preparation in which a
variety of test-taking strategies are enforced and practiced throughout the
school year. This way your child can utilize the reading strategies in both
comprehension and decoding that he or she is learning during PIT time.
