Three important things/ideas from the lesson today are true collaboration requires much more than just discussion and cooperating it is an "intellectual pursuit to achieve a goal," the reading process parallels the writing process steps (planning, drafting, revising, editing, and publishing), and successful collaboration requires a pre-planned foundation of rules and expectations, but the most important thing I learned today is that the responsibility of "building a culture of collaboration" doesn't fall solely on the shoulders of the teacher, students need to bare some of the responsibility particularly when it comes to inclusiveness.
INCLUSION
Teachers really do hold the power in the hands to shape the society of tomorrow.
Chapter 5
Three important things/ideas from the lesson today are answer frames are a temporary scaffold that must have a defined goal for elimination, students must know what type of evidence they are searching for in order to apply the proper reading strategies, great answers must answer all of the questions and be accurate, but the most important thing I learned today is that "A great answer to a reading comprehension question always references the text with specific examples or details."
Text Evidence
Our district uses DIBELS for testing and it just blows my mind that the retell portion is relied on as an adequate means of assessing comprehension. The answers I receive from students makes me wish they used the same creativity and imagination in their writing.
