Hi Nancy, This is definitely not a dumb question though when I first went to respond I thought I could answer you easily. Now, I realize it's more complicated than I initially thought. You can't really know for sure what other teachers do in their classrooms unless you have a chance to go in and observe from time to time and even then that's just a snapshot and it may not be a good hair day for a picture. One way you can surmise what other teachers do is through conversation, just like many of us have mentioned we need to do with our students regarding comprehension. However, the distance from talk to walk may be a long one. Elisa Waingort Calgary, Canada This may be a dumb question, but how do you know what other teachers do in their classrooms? I've been teaching for 20 years and the only teachers that I have ever heard teach are the ones next door to me. Nancy
