 A thought...
 What if you approached it from the overall theme  of the challenges the
 people faced in creating our country. (This goes along  with the fourth grade
 curriculum.) Another theme which would not be grade  related could be how
 people (characters) deal with challenges or  adversities.

 it's the 10 year anniversary.  My own issue, however, is that  many of the

 so

 it has to be VERY sensitive.  I'm curious to hear other  ideas.
 
 I was wondering if  anyone has ideas on how to teach about 9/11 this year
 since it is the 10th  anniversary of this event(I'm not sure anniversary is
 the  right  word??).  I teach 4th grade and I'm looking for great resources
 and
 ideas. I think this is an important topic to  discuss.

Re: [MOSAIC] Invitation to new Kindergarten Comprehension List!

I've tried signing up for the Kindergarten focused list and have not 
been able to yet.  Is anyone else having difficulty?  Or do we need to 
wait for the group to be up and running first?

 New Kindergarten Focused List

 We are going be starting a new list with focus on Kindergarten issues. You 
 can join the list at

 http://snipurl.com/kinderlist

 This email group is created for teachers who have expressed interest in 
 talking about teaching comprehension strategies at the Kindergarten level.

 I invite you to sign up for this group so we can share ideas in an effort to 
 impact young children's comprehension skills. We’ll kick off the list in two 
 weeks.

 When I was in the process of achieving my National Board Certificate, I 
 attended a 3-year long Literacy Coaching Class that offered me the 
 opportunity to work collaboratively with my colleagues to become part of a 
 statewide initiative sharing best practices teaching comprehension strategies 
 in a lab classroom setting. I created a website called Planting a Literacy 
 Garden to share my strategies and worksheets with other early childhood 
 teachers who want to dive into teaching and using thinking strategies with 
 their young students.

 Planting a Literacy Garden can be found at:

 www.readinglady.com/mosaic/tools/tools.htm

 Under Lessons plans click on - K-2 Website for Strategy Instruction by 
 Michele - This link will take you directly to my webpage.

 Looking forward to meeting you!

[MOSAIC] Lexiles

2006-10-25 Thread Jennifer Halter
As a Librarian, I too am very interested in this topic and value any
input. 

Thank you, 

Jennifer

 underdown [EMAIL PROTECTED] 10/23/06 9:11 AM 
I have a question about lexiles and libraries.  We are considering
leveling
the books in our library.  Has anyone out there done that?  If so, is
each
book leveled or are the books in leveled sections?  What do you guys
think
about this idea?  Part of me thinks kids will feel limited by their
lexile
level, but I feel that if our teachers do a good job of explaining what
a
lexile level is to kids, they will be more informed when they choose
books...what do you think?  Just looking for some feedback on a new idea
in my
district.
