I work in a grade 5 and 6 school and majority of my caseload are language kiddos. I'm a CFY and am already sick of the worksheet stuff (even though I always build off of them,etc), and I don't feel its that effective. I have this idea for some of my groups and was wondering if anyone else has done it before. I'd like to start a chapter book with the group, and read it together throughout the next quarter/semester. Sessions are generally 30 min twice a week. I figure we can read together for about 15 minutes of the session and the last 15 minutes do a structured vocab activity on what we just read, do reading comprehension (pretty much already worked in), even do theme activities to target auditory processing, pick out specific sentences for syntax work,etc. Has anyone ever done this before? Even if you haven't- do you think it will work? What other ideas do you have for hitting various language targets/goals with the book material? Thanks!
