THE READING PROCESS – Short stories

PRE READING - activate prior knowledge and awaken curiosity Ask questions about students’ knowledge or experience of the setting Extract a quote or paragraph asking what it reveals about an aspect of the story Show photographs of setting, or objects of importance in the story Look at the title and make predictions Introduce or research the historical context of the story Introduce or research information on the physical setting

ACTIVE FIRST READING -- focus on general comprehension of what happened Teacher reads aloud to class, focusing on the beginning of the story. (Save student reading for later when they select passages for prepared dramatic reading) Have students provide evidence of engagement by – *Writing answer to a guiding question (Where does the story take place? How does the author reveal that? Who is narrating the story? How do we know that? Do you see the author setting up a potential conflict?) *Marking parts of text with highlighters in color, for example: (different students can be assigned different things to highlight) i.e. cognates and known words, phrases that reveal something about the protagonist, passages that describe the setting (including social and psychological setting), key actions in the plot, etc. Draw a scene illustrating the reading Complete a graphic organizer—see next page Write predictions at specific points in the story Read aloud to class to a certain point, then have them read silently after planting a question Plan to leave students at an exciting spot – and continue reading independently to discover the answer to a specific question to answer. – Read on until you find out … and Mark the text where … is revealed. Have a dialogue with the author

RE-READING ACTIVITIES -- Reread all or part of story in order to … clarify difficult areas, review basics, focus on how author transmits the story, and deepen understanding. Create a comic strip version including dialogue from the story Create and act out an imagined conversation between characters Highlight key events in the story and narrate from different characters’ points of view Create a “reporters note book” with jotted down facts, then retell the story like a short news item Take an assigned literary element from list of literary terms (important to add these early on in a students’ career to get them thinking about the literature course—good way to grow the program) and find three quotes of importance relating to that element. Explain their importance orally to the class. Post quotes in the room.

POST – READING ACTIVITIES - give evidence of understanding orally or in writing and relate to National Standards 5 C’s whenever possible. Compare the story with something read in English. (Comparisons) Relate the story to another subject area such as history, government or English. (Connections) Discuss and write about what the story reveals about the perspectives of the author and the culture. (Cultures) Students who enjoyed the author’s work could find another story by the same author, and read it, or voluntary silent reading. Or maybe create an ‘audio book’ for children at a bilingual school, orphanage, hospital, etc. (Communities – using language for enjoyment and personal enrichment) Sources: Modified document by MilyBett Llanos-Gremillion shared by Ms. Anne Mar
