Synthesizing As We Read

We have been noticing how our thinking changes throughout a book as we read.  We usually have a deeper understanding by the time the book is done.  This happened as we read Poppy...

This especially happened as we read The Other Side.  We noticed that our schema about the Civil Rights Movement was important in our deep thinking about this book.

  We really paid attention to how our thinking changes during our first reading of Grandfather Twilight and we stopped to record our thinking at different points in the book.

We are deep thinkers in Room 408!
