We have made labels for all the thinking stems that the students put in their Reading Response Journals to refer to when responding to their reading. I highly recommend her book; she's also a phenomenal presenter.

Our district is working on implementing the ELA core state standards which I understand is being adopted by every state except Tx and Alaska. We are working on common rubrics and grading of reading and writing.. ________________________________ From: James W Hall <[email protected]> To: Mosaic: A Reading Comprehension Strategies Email Group <[email protected]> Sent: Wed, January 26, 2011 1:40:51 PM Subject: Re: [MOSAIC] Summer Professional Development Yes, that's the book.
