Reading
By Maureen

Ryan,
one of the best prof. books I've used to teach from and get lesson ideas is STRATEGIES THAT WORK. It is fantastic, easy to read, and has many ideas to use that work. Also, I teach through mini lessons connected to my read aloud. To name a few I would teach
prediciting
making connections (text to text, text to self, and text to world)
summarizing
retelling
character traits
character development
1st and 3rd person
author's purpose
cause and effect

Also, I like to read HATCHET as my first read aloud. First of all this helps boys get interested in reading Gary Paulsen throughout the year. Secondly, we refer back to this "touchstone" text the whole year.

Hope this helps a bit.
