Pat - You could try tapping into the kids' inner voices without a written
text. Try a movie clip. I know it sounds little unconventional, but their
still connecting with and interpreting a "text." Just think of it as a MAJOR
scaffold - no reading = no difficulty.
As for your every other day dilemma, I've got nothing. I'm in a similar
situation. If you figure out a great way to structure the class, please share
it!
