Planned By: Anthony Monico
Original Author: Anthony Monico, Binghamton
Students will each rotate through six different stations all involving literacy in ten minute increments. First station will be over in a quiet area of the classroom where the students read silently with the books they picked out from library that week. The second station is a journal stations where the students have a pre selected writing prompts(if u had a million dollars what would u spend it on). The third station will be a brain break where the students sit and use a tablet will applications that can play quietly. The fourth station will be at one of the iPad or tablet hooked up to the internet on the website abcya.com and the students will be using the program word bingo, this program the students choose which grade level they are on. The fifth station is on the the students iPad or tablet with the internet and on the same website abcya.com and they will be using the application for spelling where they also choose the grade level difficulty. The final station is the station where students read out loud to me the teacher from the text that is at their instructional level they where bench marked in. This is to improve fluency and comprehension and get the students on grade level. There will be a visual timer on the smart bored set at ten minutes to indicate it's time to switch stations.
Comments
Having the students use their own tablet will help myself as the teacher to track their progress during the stations as well as the students having a personal item they can take responsibility for
