3. Check the picture Before I read a page, I take a quick glance at the picture to help get ready for the words I may see.
4. Check the picture If I get stuck on a word, I take a quick look to see if the picture can help me.

7. When I figure out a word, like I just did with “turkey,” I read the whole sentence again to help me remember what the author is saying.

10. Say the first sound(s) and reread Another way I help myself when I’m stuck on a word is to say the first sound or two and reread the sentence. Sometimes, this helps the word just pop right out of my mouth.

12. Find chunks I know Lots of times, new words have chunks I know from other words. Using chunks I know helps me figure out new words.
13. Sometimes I see two words I know and put them together, like “in” and “to” make “into.” That’s a quicker way to figure out a new word than by saying the sounds one at a time.
17. Does it sound right? Authors choose their words carefully so that we will understand the story or information they are sharing.

19. Does it look right? The words I say have to match the words I see on the page. I can’t add words that aren’t there. “Yes, I will,” said Little Pig.
20. Does it look right? How long _________________ or short ___ a word is can help me know if I’m saying the right word.
21. Does it look right? Sometimes words mean the same but do not look the same. How long a word is and how it ends can help me know if the word I’m saying matches what I say. Mom Mother
22. Does it look right? Looking closely at the beginning of the word and checking through it left to right can help me know if I’m saying the right word. Mom went into the shop.
23. Do you remember learning to ride a bike? You had to do many things at once
32. Your brain is very busy!! Do I know this word or do I need to figure it out? What do I do now that I’m stuck? What do I do when it doesn’t make sense? Can I picture what’s happening? Can I stop and tell myself what I’ve read so far? What’s going to happen next?
33. Reading can be a lot of work, BUT The more you read, the better you get at reading. The better you get at reading, the more fun it is to read!
