Here's a link I just found. I've had the same questions as you, so I'm busy researching. It sounds like coupling QAR with strategic instruction helps with standardized testing. I'm all for doing whatever works, as long as I can stick to my belief system!

I explain to my kids what the types of questions are and have them identify the questions, but where do you go from there? What other activities can and should be done with QAR? _______________________________________________ Mosaic mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe or modify your membership please go to http://literacyworkshop.org/mailman/options/mosaic_literacyworkshop.org.
