Bonita Could you give some examples of projects? This really intrigues me. Jennifer Maryland In a message dated 9/17/2006 1:17:36 P.M. Eastern Standard Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:
Now, I am examining this year how to bring such grading applications into my reading instruction. I want applications that are not based solely upon teacher or text based comprehension questions, but rather a formal way to integrate the outcome of strategy use into a project that IS turned in (in some form) and graded--perhaps the discussion the children have will itself be the project ( I am imagining the use of tape recordings and a checklist/rubric--still working on it at the elementary level). Last year we used wonderful projects with our reading, but often when grading the particular projects I felt it was unrelated to the actual reading--the projects were more about integration of subjects. I want to create more directed stuff like Gallagher does in his senior classroom. I will be happy to talk more about this if folks are interested in ways Gallagher does it and ways I am trying to do it. -- Sincerely, Bonita DeAmicis _______________________________________________ Mosaic mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe or modify your membership please go to http://literacyworkshop.org/mailman/options/mosaic_literacyworkshop.org.
