I am most curious about the question she asked about
teaching strategies to kids that are not
developmentally appropriate. Did she elaborate her
thinking on that?
Synthesizing was one she specifically pointed out was not
developmentally appropriate for young children. She also addressed teachers
who have
students write down the margin of a text TS, TT, TW as they are reading. She
said
instruction in those strategies should be brief through modeling and not
something we need to do over and over again.
Debbie Miller was presenting too, but I chose someone else for that time
slot. I noticed a lot of kind of contradictory sessions at the conference.
Besides this one, Randy Bomer spoke on deficit models in his keynote and
tomorrow Ruby Payne is speaking. And there were sessions on DIBLES and eye
movement. I wonder if most people who attend sessions go to ones that might
contradict their theories or if most attend those sessions that reinforce what
they
already believe. I'm looking forward to today!
