Re: Mary Dovey's post last week... Although I am a 4th grade teacher and technically not part of this listserv's community, I enjoy reading the posts anyway in hopes of exposing my students to other ways of thinking and preparing my kids to succeed at the next levels. Also, in my heart of hearts I am (or at least I've been until now) a fifth grade teacher - in some areas that would be middle school. So...I read with interest and curiosity your post that included some terms with which I am unfamiliar. Can you elaborate a bit, and then I can go off on my own to explore in depth? The terms were: "hotseating and tableaux, and interactive note-taking."
BTW, are you familiar with text mapping? It is a skill I've worked with in an attempt to make textbooks more accessible to these younger folks, with some success. Thanks for your help.
