Assignment 5

Spaces Beyond the Book Nook and Writing Center- I think the library is the perfect place to incorporate a variety of centers. The younger students need a variety of activities to keep them interested in literacy. These centers utilize a vast array of strategies that the student won't realize they learning.

Using Think-Alouds to Help Readers Monitor Comprehension- As a reader, I sometimes have to go back over some of the things I read. We use these strategies as adults, so it would not be a stretch to teach them to the students. Once students know their are ways to build comprehension and are able to utilize them, they will become better able to comprehend which will spill over into other content areas.
