Hi readers! This week we are learning about Fix Up strategies. Readers use these strategies to help them when they get to a "clunk" in their reading. A "clunk" occurs when a reader does not understand what they read or are reading. A few strategies we are discussing include reading on, going back in the text and re-reading, and asking ourselves if what we read made sense. Read 20 minutes. Record the title and author of your book. Write about a Fix Up or other reading strategy you used to help you overcome a "clunk" or challenge in your reading.
