In this episode:
I talk about the what, why and how using independent reading time as part of your test prep strategy.
We talk about:
1.What a test prep framework is.
2. Why independent reading should be a part of your test prep strategy.
3.How to incorporate independent reading into your test prep strategy using 4 simple steps.
Quotables:
-We said that test prep should be incorporated into your already established reading block and that it should be used to review already taught skills in a different format.
-When paired with an appropriate text, independent reading time helps students to build reading stamina as well as reduce stress and anxiety.
-Both standardized and anecdotal data should help you plan for what skills students need help reviewing during their independent reading time.
