Comprehensive literacy instruction has four layers of meaning: 1) Love of reading: Students want to read and write when they are given supportive opportunities to learn how to read and write. 2) Comprehensive literacy instruction relies on a sense of balance. Balance usually refers to a multifaceted approach to teaching including reading and writing aloud, shared reading/writing, guided reading/writing, and independent reading/writing. 3) A balanced program also entails balancing multiple components of instruction. The National Reading Panel (2000) and the No Child Left Behind Act (2001) identified five components as the most important to teach in reading instruction: phonemic awareness, phonics, vocabulary, comprehension, and fluency. 4) Students need to learn strategies and skills that enable them to make sense of text.
Lesson plan will be built for Kindergarten.
