How to Support Advanced Readers

February 21, 2018January 7, 2019 Maria AranaLeave a comment

      I became interested in the needs of advanced readers because I noticed the reading development in my own children. My oldest son began to read at an early age and became a book worm after first grade. My daughter and second son also developed a love of reading at an early age.

Welcome

Welcome to the Guided Learning Studio! I’m Maria. A mom of three and a former classroom teacher turned tutor. I am committed to providing engaging learning experiences based on a learner’s needs and interests.

One of our fave places to visit when we are in Miami is the @frostscience . As members of the @azscience we get to visit here for free.
Day 5 ~ Fivefold Symmetry for my #geometricsketchbook I decided to start with single circle drawing and build my skills to more complex geometric drawings as the month proceeds. I am loving this new habit of drawing each day.
With our homeschool year complete, I am taking time this June to follow my interests, geometric drawings and math art. I am making time each morning sketch, color and paint.
Lots of engineering and mechanical paper building fun this morning. The #karakuri mechanical paper model book is lots of fun. It requires adult help but with a sharp exacto knife and scissors it works well. 🌉 We got a little frustrated building the suspension bridge. It’s hard to imagine how engineers and builders actually build a bridge over water. We’ll have to find some videos or documentaries. Our #stemeducation focus has worked out well. This is our last week of homeschooling. Next year my son returns to our neighborhood Montessori @keystonemontessoriaz . 😁
Wrapping up my school year tutoring sessions this week and next. This summer will be one for reflection and planning with some tutoring sessions mixed in.📚 In August, I plan offer my study class for teens again. The class will be for new high schoolers. I look forward to continuing tutoring my longtime clients in the 2021 school year. I will be limiting the number of clients and/or availability this fall.
We are wrapping up the year with #engineering lessons and activities. Instead of spending lots of time on physics concepts, I decided to discuss concepts as they are applied in our projects. We enjoy watching @thecrashcourse engineering before starting on projects for a bit of history. With just a week-in-a-half left, we are both ready for summer break. These last few days of lessons, I focus on three areas: read aloud (Tristan Strong), engineering and math.
