MAKING YOUR TALK ABOUT TEXT MEANINGFUL
21ST CENTURY SKILLS
• COMMUNICATION
• COLLABORATION
• CRITICAL THINKING
GOAL: TO THINK CRITICALLY ABOUT TEXT, WORK COLLABORATIVELY TO COMMUNICATE
EFFECTIVELY
Children learn best by hearing and participating in a conversation about the text.
Children may have many thoughts, connections, and ideas as they read; however WE need to model a meaningful conversation.
Children need to practice their talking about text in order to respond later in a written format. Speaking is a dress rehearsal for writing.
THREE TIERS TO THE TEXT
• Thinking within the text
• Thinking beyond the text
• Thinking about the text
THINKING WITHIN THE TEXT
• Solving words and figuring out the meaning using context clues
• Recalling information from the text
• Summarizing
• Prompts to spark the conversation….
• Where did this story take place….. Show me a picture or find the words to prove the setting.
• Who were the characters…Show me one that you liked best and tell me why
• What was the problem in the story…Find the page where you realized this was the problem
• How did the story end and did you agree with the ending…look back
• What was your favorite part….reread this part to me and explain why you liked it
