I agree that in a school that teaches strategies upper grades can probably jump in more quickly. I am not in such a school, unfortunately. I have mixed feelings here about doing each strategy slowly versus quickly because I am a global thinker and I like to see the end result, where something is going. As a student, if I have to wait through each individual strategy to see the whole--I could potentially get annoyed. On the other hand, I think a quick intro that shows the strategies in use to help with comprehension--followed by in-depth one by one (with integration as you move along) might be the better choice. That is my plan this year, unless someone convinces me to rethink it. :)Bonita _______________________________________________ Stw2chat mailing list Stw2chat@literacyworkshop.org To unsubscribe or modify your membership please go to http://literacyworkshop.org/mailman/options/stw2chat_literacyworkshop.org.
