[MOSAIC] Reading and writing

[Kevin Kleinert]

As we head into the last month and half of the year, I thought I would have my students write a research report on the topic "What Active Readers Do!"  I have taught, modeled, and we have discussed, practiced in shared reading, talked about in guided reading and used all of the reading strategies.  I am going to print some handouts from the tools page, have them use the posters in my room and their anthology to help them.  

I am curious to see what they will give me.  I am going to encourage them to use examples of strategies they used thorough the year and refer to the text that they read.  

Maybe....  if we have time, I will take their most important examples and details and put them into a mini - book for my classroom.  

Just sharing a thought!
