Dear all,
I have been a member of the list serve for just a few weeks. I love the
conversation and diligently take notes. Now, I have an issue that has been
bandied about my district and county for quite some time. As far as "the big
picture" goes, it is probably small potatoes, BUT...we would love some comments.
I am a Reading Recovery Teacher and my teacher-leader (from New Zealand)
was quite fanatical about the fact that everything on the walls needed to be a
perfect model because children would be the audience. Her feeling was that if
it was worthy of publishing or display it should be a model for all who read it.
My colleagues and I have looked in various places to see if research
exists (either way) on this subject. I have ventured into most of Marie Clay's
work...this just isn't something that appears in the contents or index. How do
you feel about this? Is it an issue, or is it more important for children to
display whatever THEY think is worthy?
Thank you for all of the good advise I have gotten. I appreciate all you
do as educators.
