I don't know about all of you, but I would love to hear more about Steph Harvey's institute! I am guessing we may have several new members as a result of this session since I have heard that this listserv and the tools page were promoted there! I am betting that many of these newest members have a lot less experience in strategy teaching and readers workshop. Would any of our long term members like to talk a little about how they felt as newbies...how you went about making the change to strategy teaching...what was challenging for you and how you overcame the challenges?
As for me personally, I have been teaching strategies for a while, but I finally have the go ahead to actually do readers workshop for some of my intervention groups and I would love to hear how you all got started in teaching strategies in reading workshop. How do you set up the workshop? I am particularly interested in how you balanced comprehension teaching with surface structure systems in the primary grades! AND I will only have an hour a day with each grade: K, 1 and 2 Jennifer **************Gas prices getting you down? Search AOL Autos for fuel-efficient used cars.
