Plan for Application
The reading this week introduces you to the final five strategies. As you read through these strategies, think about which one you could implement by the end of Week 7. Remember,throughout the book each strategy is paired with a possible reading. However, to get the most mileage out these strategies and to authentically integrate them into your content, you will likely want to choose your own readings. Thus, part of your planning for application may need to include time to find an appropriate reading to accompany the strategy you select.
Tell Us Your Plan (Post by end of Week 6)
Which strategy are you selecting and why? Please provide the context (content area/class, grade level, placement in the unit, etc.) for your planned application. Also, please tell us about the reading you plan to use with the strategy (if link is available, please include).
Apply
Put your plan into action in your classroom.
Reflect (Post by end of Week 7 by replying to your own Plan Post)
How did it go? Reflecting on the strategy(s) you implemented, what successes, challenges, and/or insights did you and your students encounter? What might you do differently next time?
Interact
Over the course of the two weeks, don’t forget to respond to another participant’s plan or reflection.
