>> I love using the ideas in her book.  I taught 2nd last year and moved to
>> 3rd this year.  I have 9 of my former students and 16 new students.  We
>> have completed the lessons on schema.  They have been a great review for
>> my former students and my new students are getting a hands on
>> introduction.
>>
>> We did the reading salad and vein diagram.
>>
>> The thought Bubble was great!  I involved some of my former students in
>> the class to demonstrate my thinking as I read.  They did an excellent 
>> job
>> and I got a good idea of what they thought and what their thinking was. I
>> put a stick at each spot I want wanted to stop and think and they used
>> their own words at each spot.
>>
>> Lint roller- I demonstrated my thinking with the roller and then divided
>> my class into small groups with a lint roller in each group.  The student
>> then made their own schema strips and rolled away.  They got to know each
>> other a little better and have a concrete way to show their schema.  They
>> then took the schema sheet home and explained it to their parents.
>>
>> One Minute- I used Cedar Point (an amusement park most of my students
>> visit each summer) and Tudela ( a city in Spain I visited) WOW! was that
>> powerful.  The class shouted ideas at me for Cedar Point and were silent
>> at Tudela except for trying to sound out the word.  We now have a great
>> visual for schema at home and at school.
>>
>> To continue with schema next week we will use Read, Write, Think from STW
>> with Stellaluna and begin looking at nonfiction conventions.
>>
>> I am enjoying trying the new ideas and I look forward to the classes
>> reactions each day.  Thank you Tanny for a wonderful resource.
