[MOSAIC] strategies for little ones

[Bagwell, Debbie]

I stumbled across Power Reading  and love it.  It has graphic organizers with depth for upper grades. We started a school reading campaign similar to what this book advocates accenting 1 strategy a month involving k-5.  We began purchasing 1 picture book each month and giving it to each teacher to use along with the strategy for the month.  We make it a big deal to unveil the book as a surprise each month along with lessons & organizers for that strategy.   The teachers love the free book.

Has anyone checked out the new Stenhouse book, Power Reading? It is for K-3 and I have started making grade-level book bins for the strategy work involved. They use five startegies, which I think is a goodk-2 start and then go into the Toolkit. Has anyone used this? I bought a bunch if the books for my teachers.
