I have been studying and implementing literature discussions using the Instructional Conversation checklist and Linda Dorn's Supporting Text Talk. This has been a move for me in my understanding for literature discussion per Daniels and Reading Excellence/Reading First. It seemed that before student discussed and shared their use of comprehension strategies as oppossed to really digging deeper in the text. Having grown in my understanding of literature discussions per Linda Dorn and Carla Soffos' Teaching for Deeper Comprehension, I would like for others to talk about how their literature discussion look/sound? I really want to think deeply about the dialogue that one should hear if students were talking deeply about the text. And, I wondering when comprehension strategies become the reason for reading and discussing books? Teresa T.
