[MOSAIC] textmapping

[Joy]

Today my students finished mapping their texts, and began the process of turning it into a script. To my surprise my group with the least abilities were able to reconstruct the events of the story, and even some dialog! I think that rereading the text over and over while searching for characters, dialog, events, etc. is what enabled this ability. Normally I hear complaints about rereading, but not this week! Authentic tasks are powerful tools!
