Re: [MOSAIC] Round robin reading

2006-12-15 Thread Liz Hill
I just attended a workshop where the presenter said that you send the 
children off to a different places in the room to rad aloud, and you 
circulate to listen to them read. SHe also said that she has children read 
quietly and the child that she is listening to in a regular voice. Also she 
recommended not using the kidney table because that reflects the childs 
voice to the child next to him/her. I plan to try this after the break. It 
makes sense and my kids already like reading all over the floor in their own 
special place, so I figure circulating shouldn't be a problem.
Oh, she did say the same independent readers, but that she stilll likes 
listening to them. She said she only takes a minute or two to listen to each 
child from the group.
Hope this helps. Liz

Well, I wish I had known before I attended the one on Monday. My districts 
has cut down on our PD funds. And, they have only been allowing 1 per person 
a year. I even thought of going to Atlanta, when she was there. I can't 
believe I missed it, I have been googling her to see of she had anything and 
nothing came up! Well, I will try my luck and see if I can get in, if not 
maybe I will think about paying out of pocket.
