Textmapping is an easy, simple, inexpensive, and effective way to differentiate instruction of book content and comprehension strategies. It is a great fit with the strategies that Ellin Keene and Susan Zimmermann wrote about in Mosaic of Thought, as well as with the broader notion of teaching for deeper understanding that Ellin writes about in her most recent book, To Understand.

You can read more about textmapping here:

I hope that you find this information useful.
