September Reading Workshop - 1 views

    Some thoughts and resources for launching the reading workshop in september
  •  
    Kim- I read an interview (can't find it again) but I really liked the question, "When you return to a book, how do you remember what you are reading about?" or something like that. I used it last year and found it enlightening. Some kids said they reread the last page. Some said they use a post and write their last thought. One said he took speech and learned how to just remember better.
