We looked at a clip of a teacher introducing a chapter book. During pre reading they
looked at pictures on book cover,read the book title and imagin what the book will be about,
connect new book to old knowledge.
During reading they used sticky notes for new vocab. The teacher told them to pick the most difficult word

Did she check for understanding?

Did they have a previously established routine?

Could she sit closer to the students?

Could she have had questions that guide students' purpose for reading.?

Could she have given the homework in written as well as oral language?

What is her style and what could be improved upon? Each of us perfects a style that works for us. This important to remember when we are evaluating others and ourselves.

Sorry that I wasn't in this class so I didn't watch the clip. What did you mean by "sticky notes?" Thanks.
