Hi Linda, Thought I would jump in on the textmapping question...I have used it successfully in grades one and four...In first grade we scrolled the book, My Little Sister Ate One Hare...a counting book by Bill Grossman, and had a lot of fun with all of the counting activities... In fourth grade we used it with our social studies text...it helped tremendously with outlining, and also with identifying the conventions in a non fiction text... I think you will find that textmapping can be used with almost any grade...and there are so many uses for it too!
