Would it be helpful for kindergarten?? Thanks, Susan in Madison YES! YES! YES! She gives concrete ways to introduce each strategy. Once you introduce them, you can always refer back to the activity. For example, I made a chart of what they know about our playground and what they know about the playground at my elementary school (in another town). I wrote everything they told me. Then in big marker, I wrote "Background knowledge" across the part where they told about our school playground. I hung the chart up and refer back to it often when we talk about using background knowledge when we read.
