Great Resource

Hi All....When I find a phenomenal resource, I like to share it with others!!!
I just came across a great reading strategy resource. The book is organized around five reading strategies (connecting, questioning, visualizing, inferring and transforming) and uses children's literature and includes ideas for the optimum learning model... modeling, practicing, and independent practice. It also has extensive lists of children's books that help teach the above strategies for primary and intermediate readers.

We'll have to look into that one--we'll be going to Barnes and Noble within hours due to the latest hype of Potter anyways! :)

I like resources that give resources such as books to use along with the strategy focused.

TC or Christi,

Does Barnes and Noble have this book? I would like to pick up a copy prior to the school year starting.

Thanks,

Jerry
