Katie- TP3

Soe-Soe read aloud from my text book today. I picked sections of the reading chapter for her to focus on since she wanted to work on reading. She told me she had been studying in the same ways and wondered if I might have a different technique. I did not off the bat ,but then I realized that the text was a great resource. I learned that she was very interested in reading this type of material because she taught at the YMCA and to children in her country. So she related to the material well as a teacher and as a student. She wanted to read aloud for reading practice, but also to get her speaking practice in as well. The next time we meet I will be asking her questions and give her some feedback on her beautiful mistakes.

  1. I wondered why your student was reading from the text book to you. Sounds like you really used your resources well. The students usually seem to know what they need. You seemed to identify quickly how to help.
