One of the strategies that I will commit to utilizing in the future are the cognitives tools for reading noted in Chapt. 5. In the content area, it seems very important to have tools for problem solving before, during and after reading. I really liked the chart on the think-aloud process. The reading strategies we know and are familiar with can be used in the content areas - math, science, and social studies. The fishbowl technique and other strategies, all lead toward independently being able to handle and read various types of text.

I really enjoyed this opportunity to learn and discuss strategies for teaching in the content areas. Many thanks to you and Janine for all of your work with us.
