We began our planning for this session on Friday. We are?going to do a model lesson on connections using the gradual release model - after we have done the metacognition salad from McGregor's book. I have the K-1 teachers. I am using information from many sources - Miller, Keene, etc, and also another book I bought this summer - Constructing Meaning by Nancy Boyles. Any suggestions on a book choice for connections that kinder would find appealing?? I am considering The Seashore Book by? Zolotow right now, but would love some fresh?suggestions.

Several people talked about chunking and one e-mail talked about the parents helping - it might have been Lori. I want to know what the parents did to help? Also, I think Cathy talked about a training for teachers and mentioned she wanted to do the gradual release model. Could you tell more about this? I know what it is and how I do it with kids, but our staff does not know how to use it. What will you do in your workshop to show teachers?
