reading and critical thinking skills among children.

skills and attitudes that enhance
independent reading behavior.

a young child is exposed to enjoyable

aims to immerse the child in literature
and deep and lasting love for reading in
him/her.

DEVELOPING CRITICAL AND CREATIVE
THINKING (CT)
 POST READING
What is an engagement activity?
EA is a series of learning tasks that are given to the
students after taking up literature while they are
engrossed in the text and are experiencing the essential
elements of the story (main idea, setting, problem to be
solved, main events, how the problem is solved and what
the story is about).
Why do we give EA?
 To understand the story better
 View story from different angles
 Help promote language learning
 Strengthen reading-writing connection; promotes
literacy
 Encourage interactive learning; hands-on
experience of the story
 Encourage students to respond to literature
Contd.

 Springboard for discussion


 Enhance discussion and enjoyment of the story
 Encourage students to become lifelong learners
 Give students chance to work together, discuss,
deliberate, present their work and experience
decision-making opportunities
 Leave students with a sense of achievement
How do we choose proper engagement
activities?
 Studying the story
 Planning the flow of discussion
 Selecting activities that will complement the
discussion
* must be interesting to students
* must focus on story content
* emphasize comprehension
* include all levels of thinking
* involve discussion and writing
* must be made tailored to fit the story

How can the children work as a group?

 1. Divide the class into groups


 2. Assign work area for each group
 3. Practice going to the work area and returning
to their places on the floor
 4. Assign leaders (group leader, assistant leader,
materials keeper, time keeper, floor keeper). It
will depend on how many children are in a group.
How can we achieve maximum
learning for the children?
 Teacher must introduce activities one at a time to the
whole class. This can be done by “walking through” the
activity; by modeling the manner in which the activity is
used, developed and completed.
 Let the students work on the activity.
 Simultaneous Engagement Activity (different activities
are given to each group) can be done if the children have
mastered all the activities.
Why is Discussion very important?
 Books not discussed lose their value ( Mortimer Adler)
 A set of questions taken up after reading uses the
classical sequencing of questions called GRADUAL
PSYCHOLOGICAL UNFOLDING (GPU).
 Questions strengthen reasoning abilities of children as
well as help them clarify/define their initial response to
the text.
 Teacher weaves questions beautifully, efficiently,
achieving the insight objective.
Five Levels/Dimensions of Reading
Comprehension (based on Gray, Gates, Smith and Barett Models)

 Level 1 Literal Comprehension


 Level 2 Interpretation (Inferential)
 Level 3 Evaluation (Critical)
 Level 4 Integration (Application to Self/Life)
 Level 5 Creative Reading
GRAMMAR AND ORAL LANGUAGE
DEVELOPMENT (GOLD)
 A. Presentation/ Introduction
 * Use the story as a springboard for your language
lesson. Use structures taken from the story as a
presentation or introduction to the particular lesson.

 B.Teaching/Modeling
 * Help the children notice the structure of the sentences
or words presented. Draw out from the students the
rules or generalization about the target structure.
Contd.
 C. Guided Practice
• * Use scaffolding as a class activity to master the structure
taught.
D. Application
• * Use the target structure in everyday language by presenting
them in a play or games.
E. Independent Practice
* Seatwork/Homework
