I always vote for "within a context" because language is communication and without context there is no meaning.

my two cents...

Do you wonder if we should teach them in isolation or together within a context?

While I don't think it really matters, I teach questioning first because I feel answering those questions often leads to inferences

Which strategy would you teach first to your students, inferencing? Or asking questions? And why? I am undecided on which one I should teach. Thank you.

Debbie Miller has a great DVD on conferencing. It's expensive but you may
be able to get it from a library somewhere.

Evelia - I have one word: CAFE! The Daily Five, but especially the CAFE
menu, really revolutionized the way I conference with students!
This is my first year launching reader's workshop and I believe is going very well. My district does not follow reader's workshop. So, I have been preaching about readers' workshop in my school. Two other teachers started reader's workshop, after seeing the enthusiasm my students are showing about their reading. I wanted to share this with you all because this group has made a big impact in my teaching. Now I need some help with individual conferences. How essential are they? Do they need to happen everyday? Does anyone know about a great website or book about individual conferences? Anything else I should know about conferences? Thanks a lot. Evelia Cadet
