Greetings!
Just a quick but much belated update on my blog!! We are on our second round of reading groups and much progress has been made. It is, in some cases, slow but steady!!
I would like to see some more hands on activity in the reading block. I just have a few suggestions for projects that will tend to elicit high level performances from your students:
plan a journey
write an opinion article
make a travel brochure
draw a graph
make a map
teach a lesson
create a model
These can be done as a follow up activity after a read aloud or even the basal story. There are more ideas on the following website: http://www.adifferentplace.org
More from the Strategies book next week!!!
Be blessed!
