Re: [MOSAIC] (Mosaic) New Book
The description at Heinemann says it's for K-8. The site also has the first chapter posted for preview. (I am impatiently waiting for the copy I ordered.) I thought these words from Debbie Miller (in the Forward) were interesting. _To Understand_ is not a sequel to Mosaic of Thought. _To Understand_ challenges us to think beyond comprehension strategies; it invites us to ask what these strategies are for. Why should readers use them? What's our ultimate goal? http://books.heinemann.com/products/E00323.aspx I, too, am hoping there will be a book chat for this title. I like Keene's writing style. What she writes about is so thought-provoking, yet the way she writes makes her words so accessible. ___ Mosaic mailing list Mosaic@literacyworkshop.org To unsubscribe or modify your membership please go to http://literacyworkshop.org/mailman/options/mosaic_literacyworkshop.org.

[MOSAIC] Ellin's new book
Hey all you Mosaic of Thought fans out there! I want to announce to the MOSAIC listserv (and a few other interested colleagues) that Ellin Keene's latest book is due out this spring and can be preordered on Amazon. It sounds fantastic and I simply cannot wait! Ellin got us thinking about reading in a whole new way and I think this one sounds like it will be equally thought-provoking. Here is the link: To Understand: New Horizons in Reading Comprehension (Paperback) by Ellin Oliver Keene _www.amazon.com/Understand-New-Horizons-Reading-Comprehension/dp/0325003238/r ef=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8s=booksqid=1201326987sr=8-4_ (http://www.amazon.com/Understand-New-Horizons-Reading-Comprehension/dp/0325003238/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8s=boo ksqid=1201326987sr=8-4) From Amazon.com: “This is a work of incredible scope: adventurous, ingratiating, challenging,genuinely groundbreaking, and gorgeously written. It will knock the socks off this profession.” - Harvey Daniels Author of Subjects Matter and Content-Area Writing The renaissance in comprehension instruction launched by Mosaic of Thought has led to changes in hundreds of thousands of classrooms, where teachers now model reading strategies, and students probe meaning more deeply. But no book in the field has satisfactorily answered the question: What does it really mean to comprehend? In To Understand, Ellin Oliver Keene not only explores this important question, but reveals what teachers can do to encourage all students to engage in deep understanding far more consistently than before. In discovering what's really behind comprehension, To Understand goes well beyond comprehension strategy instruction. Keene identifies specific Dimensions and Outcomes of Understanding - characteristics identified in readers with a highly developed ability to make sense of text - to help you rethink what comprehension is. She demonstrates how to leverage the Dimensions and Outcomes into relevant, provocative, memorable instruction. To Understand proposes a model that incorporates all aspects of literacy instruction - word learning and comprehension - and describes how teachers can focus on what matters most in literacy content. Keene shows that when teachers target the most essential content, they have the time to help every student engage more deeply with texts and discover a passion for reading and learning. The model is founded on four simple, but powerful concepts: * Focus on what's important by teaching vital concepts in depth rather than skimming over nonessential skills * Use research-based teaching and learning strategies, including proven-effective comprehension and language-based strategies, then taking them further by showing students how the strategies lead them to a fuller understand of a text * Teach the essential concepts over a long period of time so that children have an opportunity to learn not only a comprehension strategy, but to explore where that strategy leads in their understanding * Give students numerous opportunities to apply the concepts in a variety of texts and contexts. With To Understand in hand, you'll find new ways to draw out the innate intellectual interest in every student and spark dramatic improvements in literacy learning and comprehension, even among students who struggle. You'll see that by rethinking what it means to understand - by teaching children the Outcomes and Dimensions of understanding - you can help students exceed expectations while broadening your vision of their abilities, their capacity, and their energy for learning. There's still more - much more - to learn about comprehension. Read To Understand, join Ellin Oliver Keene, and discover that what's at the very core of comprehension can not only reinvigorate your teaching but take your students to new, uncharted levels of learning.

[MOSAIC] a new book!!
Some of you may remember a while back when author Elaine Garan wrote us asking if we would contribute pressing questions for her upcoming book. Well, the book is about to be released and Elaine did use many of our questions!!! Title: Smart Answers to Tough Questions: What Do You Say When You're Asked About Fluency, Phonics, Grammar, Vocabulary, SSR, Tests, Support for ELLs, and More by Elaine Garan (published by Scholastic) Here is the info from the back cover- An indispensable guide for classroom teachers, literacy coaches, administrators, and teacher educators, Smart Answers to Tough Questions addresses today's most pressing issues in language, literacy, teaching, and learning- in conversational language and a reader-friendly format. The questions are real ones, some posed by educators themselves, and other frequently addressed to educators by parents, administrators, and the media. Each tough question is followed by a research-based Bottom-Line Answer that is drawn from government reports, stripped of jargon, and translated into clear, accessible prose. This essential desktop reference is a rich resource for grant writing, school newsletters, back-to-school nights, and presentations to the school board. Each section in the book can also serve as the outline for workshops and reading methods courses. In addition, Garan includes 100+ invaluable research quotes that are downloadable from the Web. Here is an easy link to the Scholastic page: http://tinyurl.com/37x36f Here is an easy link to the Amazon page: http://tinyurl.com/2q2hro I was fortunate to read the draft for review and all I can say is BUY THIS BOOK Here is what I wrote for my review: Elaine Garan has synthesized the research and in basic English provided us with meaningful responses to the scrutinizing questions teachers are often asked. We need this book to defend our teaching! Our own Joy W. wrote in her review: Not only does this book provide answers to tough questions, but it also draws a detailed picture of what research-based practices look like in the classroom. I see this as a guidebook for best practices in literacy education, as well as a resource for talking with parents about these issues. Our own Heather Wall wrote in her review: I found the information to be invaluable not only for addressing parent questions, but also for informing fellow teachers of research-proven best practices. This is an excellent resource- every literacy coach and staff developer should own this book!
