I would either simplify this or maybe make it over the course of a week? https://nowcomment.com/documents/347781?scroll_to=3076488 https://nowcomment.com/documents/347781?scroll_to=3076488 Thu, 08 Jun 2023 10:29:49 -0400 This helps simplify things. Would other texts work? https://nowcomment.com/documents/347781?scroll_to=3076487 https://nowcomment.com/documents/347781?scroll_to=3076487 Thu, 08 Jun 2023 10:28:04 -0400 I think this is a great way to introduce the goal of vocabulary! This could easily double over into a science or social studies class. https://nowcomment.com/documents/347781?scroll_to=3076486 https://nowcomment.com/documents/347781?scroll_to=3076486 Thu, 08 Jun 2023 11:01:21 -0400 Great idea! https://nowcomment.com/documents/347388?scroll_to=3075430 https://nowcomment.com/documents/347388?scroll_to=3075430 Mon, 05 Jun 2023 21:10:02 -0400 This could even be a prompt for bell work. Have students (or model) how to respond to a question for that subject. https://nowcomment.com/documents/347388?scroll_to=3075429 https://nowcomment.com/documents/347388?scroll_to=3075429 Mon, 05 Jun 2023 21:07:58 -0400 Checked Out https://nowcomment.com/documents/347388?scroll_to=3075428 https://nowcomment.com/documents/347388?scroll_to=3075428 I think kids often see this step and think it is a waste of time. They want to get their assignment done quickly with very little effort. I think it is OUR job to provide a writing process involving short pieces to really get the ball rolling for them.

The other teachers would come to me asking how we could work together to help the struggling reader/writer in other areas like science or social studies. It truly causes a problem in other content areas. Mon, 05 Jun 2023 20:56:34 -0400
