Module 4: Reading Reflection


Looking across Chapters 10 and 11, which of the understandings and strategies in the comprehensive literacy program are you already addressing/doing with your students (or have you done, or do you plan to do)?


Literacy program that I use in my classroom is known as the C.A.F.E and Daily 5. It is a program that is takes all of the necessary programs and puts it into one plans. While doing CAFÉ we follow different programs throughout the day. The programs that we use throughout the day consist of , conferencing with students, guided reading, reading independently, listen to reading, working with words, guided writing, or reading to learn which involves me incorporating science or social studies text.

I will continue to do the C.A.F.E / Daily 5 program because all of the different programs are addressed. Conference with the students is one of my favorite. I enjoy talking with the students and letting them pick out their goals. They tell me what they are reading about and why they like it. We just chat about the characters and I encourage the kids to make connections. Another that I love to do at the end of every day, is read a book to the student. The students love listening to me read. We also do novel sets and they love being involved in the literature discussion with the novels. The students love journal writing as well and will share them with the class. I feel that I do a lot of the literacy programs that Weaver discussed throughout the chapter.
