Hello, my name is Amy Goodman and I am taking Nancy Creech's summer reading comprehension class. I will be graduating after completing student-teaching in the fall and couldn't be more excited to finally begin teaching and hopefully making the difference we all dream to make. The Mosaic of Thought strategies have changed the way I look at reading and reading comprehension. I hope to make use of these strategies throughout my teaching career in every aspect and content area of learning. I understand that these strategies have even been put to use when preparing students for standardized testing. My question then, is how much do we stray from class content to cover "standardized testing content"? As a new teacher I am at a loss between the two. Any suggestions or ideas on how to prepare for standardized tests without "straying too far" or cutting too much course content? Thank you in advance for your help, advice, and expertise. ~Amy Goodman
