Hello! So we added a tab to our learning journeys- TEXT TALKS. This is where you'll find us educationally gabbing about the articles, stories and books we've been reading together. So please, click on it above to see our latest- Frindle and NEWSELA articles.
The goal is for me, the teacher, to LISTEN to each team table make their conversation and case about the topic at hand or I may specifically challenge them to a strategy authors and readers use to communicate. Then I step in and explain what I noticed, heard, saw and how well they used their evidence to make it believable and convincing. So, the challenge is on! Try it out at home too and we'd love to see it on Kidblog!
