The author's purpose in this article, I don't believe, is strategic reading, but choosing from an array of possibilities, the one most suited to long term understanding. When you read this article, analyze the differences between the two history teachers' lessons. Both are using reading strategies, and one is widely used by content area teachers applying strategic reading to their lessons. LEX uses this often. The contrasting lesson with the other teacher is entirely different. Why? Does does the subject content make a difference? After I read this article, I realized how important it is for Title I teachers to maintain contact with the classroom teacher to be apprised of what he/she is already doing. The question is, "How can Title I support the lesson?", the same way or offer a different approach. Share your thoughts.

Dialogic Reading Helps Pre-Schoolers
What is dialogic reading? How can we use this strategy with our T1 pre-readers? "Read Alouds" are an important part of Title I reading groups of all ages & abilities. Dialogic reading, as the name implies, is a 2-way participation in oral reading. Read the author's 5 prompts that the teacher or parent can use in the dialogic process. Wonderful!

Primary-source Documents Enliven History
How can we use primary-source documents to enliven history and supplement social studies classes? In our search for complex text to supplement social studies, this is a great idea.
History will come alive when students engage in close reading of primary documents. See Reading Like an Historian embedded link http://sheg.stanford.edu/?q=node/45
Have you ever used primary-source documents in the past? What could you try this year in Title I?
