Comment on Summaries - Text Structures

I just finished chapter 10.  I love the instructional techniques in each of these chapters.  This text really is going to be great resource! It sure makes sense to me that using the summaries techniques are great teaching tools for content area reading.  You can practice the mechanics of writing a good summary while learning content.  This might seem like a no-brainer for many of you, but I was just excited by the idea of accomplishing two tasks at once!

  1. Not a no brainer, Charlotte. These are useable strategies that really help kids with their comprehension, which is reading is all about anyway.
