I just did a lesson with my class of second graders today on how to pick
a just right book using the 5 finger rule. It went well, however, he
students in my highest reading group were having problems choosing a
book using the 5 finger rule because they can decode almost anything you
put in front of them. Does anyone have any suggestions or guidelines I
could present to them on how to pick an appropriate book on their level?
I do have some chapter books for them to pick from, and I know just
because they can decode it doesn't necessarily mean they are
comprehending. Any suggestions would be really appreciated.
Thanks
