Lesson 3: In this lesson, we focus on the short o sound as Madame Troll wants to put Mom Gruff in her pot.
Meditation: We begin every session with a check in and meditation. The brief meditation allows us to bring focus to the work we will do together and creates a calmness that makes learning easier.
Physical Warm-up: Routine is critical to successful lessons, and since our lessons are centered around acting, we start by engaging our body from head to toe.
Alphabet Yoga: A foundation activity, alphabet yoga reminds us of the letter shapes and sounds, and can be used for a variety of activities including spelling words with our bodies.
Vocal Warm-up: Furthering our routine as actors, we engage the voice with the goal of speaking clearly and distinctly. This is so important as we prepare for our oral reading fluency work.
The Three City Goats Gruff - Chapter 3: Each Play In A Book title is a five chapter story with a corresponding five act play. Each chapter/act focuses on a short vowel sound. Located in the reader, each act of the five act play is leveled to meet students as young readers. Level one is easy to memorize and contains a rhyming component. Level two is at grade level, and level three provides a challenge when needed. Working with scripts presents the perfect opportunity to engage in repeated readings, a critical step in building oral reading fluency.
