Hi, I been watching the conversation, and I guess it would depend on what they think we mean by change. I teach third grade and we are deep into Nory Ryan's Song. Right now, I have been doing a lot of explicit modeling about how my thinking is changing as I read. We had a character that we thought was mean and scary and now our thinking is changing. My students are really coming up with good thinking along with me. I think they need a lot of modeling and maybe with older students it may be the book choice - just a thought.
