For this week's reading, I read Seeking Help for a Struggling Reader: Seven Tips for Teachers. I was curious to see if it would give me any information that I didn't already know or that I haven't already tried. Three things that I did learn from this article is that: parents often need suggestions of what to do as well, so I should inform them more often of new ideas that I am trying at school, look for tutoring services if I cannot provide them myself, and attend professional developments in the area of need (which I have been doing and is why I choose to get my Master's in Reading), but most importantly, I learned that I should stay current on what resources are out there for me to use with my struggling readers. I have asked several other teachers of what methods they use and have used suggestions of theirs, but I should try to do some more research on my own.
