6. Teach close reading using learning pathways that show students how to learn.

Оглавление

Teaching units strengthens the impact of close reading. Teaching units as learning pathways is even more powerful. Here’s what I mean: You and your students could study a unit on dinosaurs, a perennial primary favorite. You would read books about various dinosaurs, and students would come to recognize the connection between these massive prehistoric creatures—which would build their dinosaur domain knowledge, a great start. But what if you added another layer to your unit study? What if you used this dinosaur unit to show students how to study any animal they want to investigate? This is what I call a learning pathway, and it is focused not on the content of a unit, but on the process of learning how to learn.
