14. Study the Strategies
Look through the packet of strategies
from Mosaic of Thought
Highlight those you use and are
comfortable with
Add these choices to your guided
reading lesson plan
Go back and learn about those
strategies that you do not use a lot or at
all – this will be your goal to work on
15. Nonfiction - Text Structures
There are five text structures found in expository
text.
Compare /
Contrast
Problem /
Solution
Descriptive
Sequence
Cause /
Effect
These strategies need to be explicitly taught to students in
order for them to learn the strategies needed to extract the
most important information from the text.
17. Graphic Organizers
Graphic Organizers can be used as a pre or post
teaching strategy. (activate prior knowledge,
introduce vocabulary, or reinforce key concepts)
Organizers should be taught as a process for
students to organize their own thinking – not
always as a final product to be graded.
These are great tools for extracting information for
pre-writing as well. (Constructed Response or
Performance Task)
18. Read, Cover, Remember, and
Retell
Read – only
as much as
your hand can
cover
Cover – the
words with
your hand
Remember –
what you have
just read (it’s
ok to take
another look)
Retell – what
you just read
inside your
head to a
partner
24. Change is MESSY!
Fullan: “The more accustomed one becomes to
dealing with the unknown, the more one
understands that creative breakthroughs are
always preceded by periods of cloudy
thinking, confusion, exploration, trial and stress;
followed by periods of excitement and growing
confidence as one pursues purposeful
change, or copes with unwanted change.
25. Fullan
Those individuals and organizations that are
most effective do not experience fewer
problems, less stressful situations, and
greater fortune, they just deal with them
differently.
26. Change is like a planned journey into uncharted
waters on a leaky boat with a mutinous crew.
Michael Fullan
