Looking Through the Faraway End
註釋Presenting the story of how discussion became the foundation of a teacher's classroom practice, this book examines reading development in a group of second graders, observing classroom discussions and the transformation of a basal-reading curriculum into one which used literature-study groups. The book reports on close-up classroom observation as well as the observable literacy patterns through which students created meaning. Chapters are: (1) "Setting the Context"; (2) "How Can I Help My Students become Powerful Conversationalists about Books? Just Jump Right In!"; (3) "Helping Students Learn about Literature"; (4) "Teaching Reading with Literature: A Focus on Engagement and Comprehension"; and (5) "How Can I Know What My Students Have Learned?" (Contains 100 references. Appendixes provide theme bibliographies and the International Reading Association/National Council of Teachers of English Standards for the English Language Arts.) (EF)
