Direct Instruction

This video shows me reading excerpts from Roald Dahl's 'The Twits' to my Reading class. You will see the enthusiasm the students have for this book now that we are a few chapters in, as well as the deliberate pauses I make and questions I ask, to support their thinking and prepare them for their follow up task.

Further down this page, is a quick 3 minute video, of my Cats reading group, discussing how we went with the EE, and what predictions we have made for the next part of the story.
