Included in lessons could be how to engage kids in the thinking about the text. If you've seen Comprehension Connections, by Tanny McGregor, they share specific activities that are engaging and interactive, where kids are "doing" while they're thinking.
Ellen Stein Reading Resource Teacher Riverview Elementary School 410-887-1428 [email protected] -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Carrie Cahill Sent: Monday, June 08, 2009 9:44 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [MOSAIC] weekly strategy study I'd like to see this look more like sharing of lessons rather than stuff that goes with the lessons. Can we talk about how we learn and ultimately teach each strategy and not focus on the tools for teaching them? Otherwise my fear is that we will only scratch the surface which is exactly the opposite of what we want to do with our teaching. _______________________________________________ Mosaic mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe or modify your membership please go to http://literacyworkshop.org/mailman/options/mosaic_literacyworkshop.org.
