Connecting Reading and Writing K-1
Here at DAA, reading and writing is a big part of our daily learning. As a teacher, I love reading to my students and incorporating writing in order for scholars to make connections with the text.
During guided reading, I use that time to not only discuss comprehension and phonics, but also the mechanics of writing such as punctuation, capitalization, and grammar. Students who can read well become better writers and students who write well become better readers!
Here are a few easy ways we incorporated writing into our reading, feel free to try some of these at home.
My students truly enjoyed these writing activities and I hope your child does too! For more information and resources on integrating reading and writing visit these sites.
