  1. Welcome to Action 100 Parent Night! Jefferson Elementary September 2014

  2. Tonight’s Targets Parents will learn about the purpose and goals of Action 100. Parents will learn about Action 100 in the classroom. Parents will learn about how they can help their children grow as readers through at-home reading.

  3. Why Action 100? Practice is essential to become good at anything. Research has clearly shown that students who read more learn to read better, become better students, are more successful in school, score higher on state tests, and have more choices and opportunities in their lives. In almost any endeavor, a person needs about 5% good coaching and about 95% engaged practice. From American Reading Company, Action 100 Instructional Framework

  4. Independent Reading :Reading Achievement and Vocabulary Exposure

  5. Goals of Action 100 • Students practice reading every day for one hour—30 minutes at school and 30 minutes at home. • Every student will achieve 1-2 years of growth each year.

  6. 2013-2014 Action 100 DataJefferson Elementary Average growth: 1.10 years 76.5% of 487 Students Proficient or Above for Reading Level 75.6% of 487 Students On Target for Reading Practice

  7. Action 100 Color Levels and Grade Targets http://www.americanreading.com/leveling/

  8. Action 100 in Action In Action 100, students read FUN, FAST, and EASY books while teachers provide expert coaching through one-on-one conferences. • 3-5 minute focus lesson • 30 minutes independent reading at level (2 steps) and individual conferencing • 5 minutes accountable talk and/or accountable writing

  9. Classroom Independent Reading • The students pick books at their own levels, books that they can read fluently. (FUN, FAST, EASY) • As they read, teachers work with students one-on-one. • Teachers check their progress and help them improve by assigning individual power goals. • Teachers use the IRLA as a guide to be sure they address all of the state standards.

  26. Reading at Home • Every student should read at least 2 steps (30 minutes) at home every night. • You can help your child grow as a reader by… • Block out distractions: TV, radio, video games. • Listen to your child read. • Talk to your child about his/her reading.“Tell me about your book.” Ask “who”, “what”, “when”, and “where”. • Ask “why” questions to encourage deeper thinking. • As your child decodes new words, avoid telling him/her the word. Encourage chunking. (in ter cep tion) • Sign one line on log sheet for every STEP (15 minutes) of reading completed. • Pack up books so they return safely to school.

  27. How can I find a good-fit book for my child? • Most books in Jefferson’s library and classrooms are leveled. • Keep this in mind when selecting books elsewhere: • Your child should be able to read the book with 99-100% accuracy. This means he/she should not miss more than one word per page. • If you read a 300-page book at 95% accuracy, you would be missing 20 words per page. This would be equal to 6000 unknown words. As you can imagine, it would be difficult to comprehend the text. (subject matter)

  28. Catch-Up Reading • We realize that lives are busy and occasionally your child may miss a step or two. However, it is essential that students catch up on the steps missed as soon as they can. If it becomes a habit, students may be required to participate in catch-up reading time at school. • Books and Breakfast 8:45-9:15 amin cafeteria—must have pass from teacher

  29. Super Readers! Students can earn recognition for their reading efforts for every 100 steps. Classes will celebrate when the entire classes meets each step milestone (each hundred steps).

  30. Frequently Asked Questions • Can I go to a leveling website myself? We have a guest login that parents can use to access Schoolpace, the web site that has the Action 100 book database. Please contact Heather Klavetter (heklavetter@rochester.k12.mn.us)if you are interested. • Can I make any leveling guesses based on other leveling systems? No, American Reading Company considers other elements of literacy, such as vocabulary and text complexity, that other systems do not.

  31. Frequently Asked Questions • Does my child have to read only from their level at home? After a student completes their required steps at their level, students can choose any book. • Do students need to read 2 steps on Saturday and Sunday? No, students need to complete 4 steps total for the weekend (2 Friday night, 1 Saturday, 1 Sunday).

  32. Frequently Asked Questions • My child feels they are at a level that is too easy for him/her. Visit with your son or daughter’s classroom teacher about your concerns. They can explain skills and goals that your child is still working towards.

  33. Frequently Asked Questions • How long will my child be at a particular reading level? A large factor in moving levels is gaining a stronger vocabulary so the student is ready for the text complexity. From third grade forward, it is very typical to stay in a color level for an entire year. Students are expected to read WIDELY, from a wide range of genres. • White: 1-2 academic or literary vocabulary words or phrases per page. • Black: 3-5 academic or literary vocabulary words or phrases per page. • Orange: 6-10 academic or literary vocabulary words or phrases per page. • Purple: 11-15 academic or literary vocabulary words or phrases per page.

  34. Example of Vocabulary Complexity From Exploring Continents: South America (Purple) The landscape of South America is amazingly varied. There are enormous plains called grasslands, towering mountains, raging river, and huge tropicalrain forests.

  35. Action 100 Links on Jefferson’s Website We look forward to working with your children this year! This presentation and other resources will be available on the Jefferson website soon.
