Reading Buddies

We are learning to be good readers by practicing with our reading buddy. When we read to our buddies, we have to sit beside them and read our books carefully. We know that reading is about looking and thinking. We need to listen to our own reading so we can notice if we we make a mistake and then try hard to fix up our mistakes by using some of the strategies that follow: 1: Re read the sentence and get our mouth ready to say the first sound. 2: Read on to the full stop and think about what would make sense in the story. 3: Use the picture to try and find a clue about the word we are not sure of. Look at us with our reading buddies.
