METACOGNITION
During our first week we learned about metacognition... thinking about our thinking. We all think when we read, but our lessons have helped us recognize we are doing this.
 |
| To help us see and understand that reading is much more than just reading words, we made this Venn diagram. Real reading only takes place when thinking is added to reading the text! |
 |
| This is our chart that gives thinking stems to help us communicate what is going on in our minds as we read. |
 |
| We used this "thought" bubble to help us see our thinking. While one person read the words, the other person thought aloud. CHOOSING A "GOOD FIT" BOOK
We have talked about how we choose books that are a good fit for us. I do not lock a student into a specific level of books. As long as they follow the following guidelines, everything should be okay!
