Hi Lori, Can you describe your process with first graders? Thank you! Elisa
Elisa Waingort Grade 2 Spanish Bilingual Dalhousie Elementary Calgary, Canada The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt within the heart. —Helen Keller Visit my blog, A Teacher's Ruminations, and post a message. http://waingortgrade2spanishbilingual.blogspot.com/ I love, love, love the GIST Strategy as presented by Janet Allen. Teaching kids to summarize by boiling a paragraph down to 15 words or less, while having these important discussions about determining importance, really seems to work. I have been successful working with first graders (in a shared process) and have seen the same process really benefit secondary readers.
