Develop Deep Thinking While Reading in Every Subject!
Today’s standards demand students think more deeply about more complex texts and support their thinking with evidence from the text. Consequently, students are expected to deal with and understand authors ideas, not just the information stated directly in the text.
This workshop provides you with simple, concrete activities and engaging structures that guide students to actively interact with texts—making the complex inferential process a habit of mind for all students. Applicable for all courses that include text content.
