Reading Strategies Book: Goals 8 - 10

I am hopeful that all of you are enjoying this book. Our last blog discussion focused on fictional texts and now we will move into non-fictional texts. Look over Goals 8 through 10. The a big non-fiction task for students is finding the main idea and details. In both goals 8 and 9 Seravallo covers strategies that focus on finding the main idea and the key details. Think and discuss the items below: Goal 8 and 9: How are you currently teaching main idea and details? Share a strategy from goal 8 or 9 that you have tried or might want to try. Goal 10: What challenges do you face when teaching text features? Share a strategy from goal 10 that you might try. Goals 8 through 10: focus on Supporting Comprehension in nonfiction. What strategy stood out to you the most from those three goals? Our next book study will be in person on January 28. Be prepared to share about a strategy from goals 11 through 13
