three point is teaching project builds on the idea that kids are gonna be more

0:00:04

motivated to read

0:00:05

if they see an authentic purpose for reading

0:00:08

and also this project positions kids who traditionally been seen from a deficit standpoint

0:00:14

and export

0:00:15

so

0:00:17

which howling and they're experts and they we have up to those expectations

0:00:22

lather thing and being told that they can treat are feeling like they can in

0:00:27

this project fifth and sixth grade students have been identified for title one

0:00:31

prepare reading lessons for first graders

0:00:34

each intermediate student has two or three first graders as students

0:00:38

to prepare for each lesson the students and i brainstorm things that their previous reading

0:00:44

teachers had done with them and reading lessons

0:00:47

and then we talked about ways that

0:00:50

those reading lessons helped or maybe didn't help them so much

0:00:54

and we looked at ways to revise those kinds of professional development component for the

0:00:59

apprentice teachers one of the things that idea this took pictures during each lesson and

0:01:04

i also videotaped some of the lessons

0:01:08

and afterwards we debriefed and i asked them to look at the pictures and what

0:01:12

was going on during that picture and they did some reflective writing

0:01:16

on another occasion we watched video of themselves and their peers teaching and they critiqued

0:01:23

each other they did the three pluses and the wish activity and they really helped

0:01:28

each other figure out how to handle things like and they all feel like they

0:01:32

would really like to be in the apprentice teacher project again

0:01:36

and they feel like they've read a lot more than they would have otherwise they

0:01:40

also become much more aware of the miscues that they make and the how important

0:01:46

is to think about miscues and think about making self corrections

0:01:50

they're taking a lot more ownership and responsibility for their own reading and definitely becoming

0:01:55

experts as readers
