[MOSAIC] possible weekly study of strategies?
I am fairly new to this group and now that I'm out for the summer I feel like I have time to really think about how to use the different strategies as well as research more information. Forgive me if this has been done, but would anyone be interested in doing a weekly study of each of the strategies - for example, one week on questioning, the next on visualizing, etc? Each week we could talk about different resources you use, books, strategies for teaching and sharing any materials you have created.

Re: [MOSAIC] possible weekly study of strategies?
Sharon, I am new to this group also; however, I'm not new to teaching having taught for 18 years mostly in grades K and 1. I stumbled across the Mosaic of Thought and Strategies That Work over my Spring Break last year (I know, I live a real exciting life). Anyway, after reading through these books, I was enlightened and captivated by strategies (some of which I was already using) that actually made sense in the teaching of reading. As a novice in most of these strategy areas, I would be VERY interested in participating in an online discussion focusing on the strategies. I would like to implement this full-fledged in my first grade classroom in the fall. Thanks for suggesting this activity.

who is the author of Strategies That Work? thanks Andrea Portland,Oregon Jeanne Petty jag_39_1...@hotmail.com 06/07/09 6:33 PM Sharon, I am new to this group also; however, I'm not new to teaching having taught for 18 years mostly in grades K and 1. I stumbled across the Mosaic of Thought and Strategies That Work over my Spring Break last year (I know, I live a real exciting life). Anyway, after reading through these books, I was enlightened and captivated by strategies (some of which I was already using) that actually made sense in the teaching of reading. As a novice in most of these strategy areas, I would be VERY interested in participating in an online discussion focusing on the strategies.

[MOSAIC] Please stop me too on Weekly Study thread
Please, please do not send any more me too, or include me messages on the weekly study idea. My guess is that we've sent out over 40,000 individual messages with this in the body. This puts a tremendous burden on the server and really doesn't really help us to organize much. If the me-to's continue we'll need to moderate the list until this dies down. So please, always remember to be careful to think a bit before replying with just a few words. I'm not sure if anyone has volunteered time to help organize and then moderate this group. If there is a person or two interested, please contact me (km...@literacyworkshop.org) or Jennifer (cnjpal...@aol.com).

Re: [MOSAIC] reading as a time waster?
Ali wrote: My question for everyone is it okay to have the children find a book everytime there are a few minutes to spare before transitions or does forced reading decrease their interest? Any thoughts? Maybe rotate the way that a few minutes are spent. One time allow children to find a book, another time have students sing a favorite song once more, and another time count something fun such as how many noses there are in the group. That way, choosing a book gets categorized as one of many ways that people choose to have fun. Do you really feel that schools force children to read? Schools also force children to go outside at recess time to play. I have a hard time viewing this as a problem.
