About Me

I am a big supporter of metacognition. It can be defined as "thinking about thinking." Good readers use metacognitive strategies to think about and have control over their reading. Graphic and semantic organizers are also effective. Answering and generating questions. Modeling or demonstrating, how to apply the strategy, usually by "thinking aloud" while reading the text that the students are using. Guided practice is also a plus. I would guide and assist students as they learn how and when to apply the strategy. Application. I would help students practice the strategy until they can apply it independently. Hobbies: books, music, hiking, art, travel, sports, reading, writing
