As a class, we've discussed how there are different types of reading. For example, there is at home reading, school reading, fiction and non-fiction reading. One question related to reading that we're trying to answer is, "What can we do as readers to think about our reading as we're reading and also remember more about we've read?" Today, we implemented a strategy to help us achieve this goal.
Our journey toward achieving this goal began today in our LRC where the students were directed to select a book about the Civil War. When we examined the works of Mildred Taylor in our Daybook for Critical Reading and Writing, it became apparent that the students had misunderstandings about the Civil War era. However, it isn't enough to just read the material. We have to keep our reading goal in mind. The activity and responses shown below are one more attempt of us making progress toward our goal. Enjoy.
