What is Content Area Reading? | K12 Reader - 0 views

  •  
    "Every time you read a text you read it the same way, right? Novels, textbooks, magazine articles and Internet web pages are all the same if they are written in the same language, aren't they? The answer to both of the questions is "not really". Readers employ different reading strategies and prior knowledge based on the genre (type of reading) and topic of the text. For this reason it is important that teachers help students, especially those in middle and high school, learn how to "tackle" their particular content area's texts."

    I always think it is important to help students with content area reading, so I found this site appealing.

    "Searching for middle school books that make the outside world disappear, the books that make me look for the next opportunity to read a few pages. Book summaries and images are directly copied from Follet's Titlewave and other reviewers as credited. Comments are my own. Eleanor Funk Schuster, Librarian"

    I'm always looking for book suggestions for the kids. I like that there is a description of the book and often a link to the author's site.

      Be sure to read what the forecast is in the year 2020! It will get you thinking!
  •  
    Major forces of change are challenging us to realize a world of learning that: * Puts learners at the center * Leverages technologies and human capital in new ways * Supports anytime, anywhere learning * Includes a diverse range of institutions and organizations, not just schools. This world of learning will make it possible for all learners to develop deep knowledge and abilities in order to thrive throughout their lifetimes. To make this vision a reality, new ways of thinking and acting will be required.

      Apps for the iPad that would be useful for ELLs.
  • Educational Apps We continue to test out apps that are both fun and educationally useful for ELLs.  There are several good ones.  Flipboard allows you to customize and browse the web in a magazine layout that is easy to scan and fun to read. There are also many good word game applications. I like the traditional Boggle and Scrabble.  There are also lots of flashcard apps, such as Index Card, that help students learn study skills. Apps like Stack the States and Star Walk help with content area studies.
