Teresa, The Dorn and Soffos book you mention below when discussing Text Talk - is that "Teaching for Deep Comprehension"? Is that where I need to look to find more info on Text Talk and the Conversation Moves chart?

Lori, That is one book I do not own....yet. Could you talk about the different categories and the coding of conversations? For an action research project I did analyze the change over time in teacher/student talk in regards to Dorn and Soffos' Text Talk which included posing questions, clarifying, elaborating, supporting thinking with evidence, etc... I also looked at each chain of talk and classified it as literal, inferencial, and evaluative to determine if thinking deepened with the use of text talk/students' own language which produced the same behaviors. After each literature discussion we go over over Conversational Moves chart _______________________________________________ Mosaic mailing list Mosaic@literacyworkshop.org To unsubscribe or modify your membership please go to http://literacyworkshop.org/mailman/options/mosaic_literacyworkshop.org.
