Go to "Teachers", then "Reading Trifolds". I was just looking at them today, but there's a note on that page saying that herwebsite is under reconstruction. Keep checking back. I'm using hernonfiction trifold during a biography unit. It incorporates: text features, questioning, determining important facts, making connections, summarizing &interesting information. I'm using them in small groups.She also has a general fiction trifold, as well as ones that are specific tobooks (Ready Freddy, Magic Tree House, etc).

They are most helpful and can recommend avenues to pursue. If he has been legally disagnosed as having a learning disability, he can receive services of OofD and because of their efforts, his work can be modified and instructors must adhere to the guidelines/ requirements set forth. Seek their help first; otherwise, the frustration you and your son feel will only exacerbate.kMary ----- Original Message ----- From: Carol Lau Date: Sunday, March 7, 2010 3:11 am Subject: Re: [MOSAIC] College Help To: "Mosaic: A Reading Comprehension Strategies Email Group"Linda Mood Bell teaches visualization to learning disabled students. ----- Original Message ----- From: To: Sent: Saturday, March 06, 2010 3:04 PM Subject: [MOSAIC] College HelpHello list, My son is 21 years old.
