BUNK TIME 20 MIN Reading for Knowledge
MULTILINGUAL LEARNERS Guide campers to a text they can read on their own or with a partner. Encourage campers to keep their eyes open for new or unfamiliar words in their Bunk Time reading. Have them write the words in their notebooks. Then, invite them to work with partners and look up the meanings of the words in the dictionary.
Invite campers to stretch or move before settling down to read on their own or with a partner. Distribute texts, or have campers choose a text from the Read-Aloud Text Set for the lesson to encourage extending knowledge related to today’s read-aloud. Make sure that all campers have a book or text that they can comfortably read on their own. When about five minutes remain in the session, have campers jot down in their notebooks something new they learned—or a connection they made—during their reading. Invite volunteers to share with the group.
If time allows, invite campers to explore and choose a book from your classroom library to read during a break or take home to share with their family. Bunk Check Circulate as campers read, using the following prompts to check on comprehension and engagement.
