Video Response

Strengths:

Interacting with the students before the reading/sharing ideas 

Modeled how she wants the students to read and interact in the activity

She had the students follow along and listen first

Explained grammatical concepts/ punctuation marks




Weakness: 

It is difficult to pinpoint the students who struggle with reading

Might not have the same confidence when reading alone

Shared Reading

- Is pretty much similar to choral reading, but can be in smaller groups and work with different formats such as plays.


Strengths:
- Helps students practice reading using prosody
- Using a play, shows the difference between the format between a play and other readings,
- Having used a play, students tend to use more expression and inflection in their voice to convey meaning, which can help with comprehension
- Had the students reflect after reading to bring it together

Weakness':
- The pace of the reading could be going too fast for some of the students
- Can only work with certain types of things/plays or else it becomes more of a choral reading
