A3: I ❤️ the idea of wearing a “coach” visor during sm grp as a reminder to the st and myself. I am there to guide them as they do the work w holds them accountable while I assist them in using RT think alouds and strategies #RTfab4

@phoward65_pam How do I get to tweetdeck? Is that separate from twitter?

[Jennie Huffman @HuffmanJennie]

#rtfab4 Hi!! Can somebody tell me how I can just see the tweets with this hashtag?

Small group provides more opportunities for teacher modeling of the strategies so that they are able to use the strategies independently during literature circles. The majority of the work is put on students. #rtfab4

A.5 #RTfab4 Listen to the students....Brief written assessment...Ask students to define each strategy and identify steps involved...FAB 4 mat...Exit ticket reflecting on which strategy was the most helpful...Class discussion on strategies

A.4 #rtfab4 Scaffolding – gradual release of responsibilities
Read-alouds – public thinking, talking through steps – Gives Ss a voice Metacognition – reflection Cooperative learning – S engagement, process information, avoid same Ss participating all the time

[Jennie Huffman @HuffmanJennie]

A.3Ss gradually become more independent because they are given opportunities to process information. Promotes engagement and encourages all Ss to respond and keeps Ss accountable for their learning. An increase in S involvement = increase in achievement or comprehension #rtfab4

#rtfab4 A.2 So forgot about this!! The fab four mat is a great way to keep students accountable. Use short high interest texts.

[Jennie Huffman @HuffmanJennie]

#rtfab4 Benefits include a sense of community. Students are given opportunities to share ideas and to be exposed to other students’ ideas and backgrounds. Common language is established, teaching opportunities are increased, and students are engaged in discussions.

A4 cont...Content area textbooks -FAB 4 lessons, use of text features Leveled books – small group using illustrations and text features #RTfab4

[Jennie Huffman @HuffmanJennie]

A4 Its great that u can use all reading material. Introduce strategies-picture books and material that is below level is best. Workable text chunks makes scaffolding easier. Novels–whole class or small group-model skimming and scanning,#RTfab4

I used mentor texts to teach parts of speech - loved using them! https://t.co/PBqVIQxSHp

#rtfab4 I am only seeing tweets from a handful of people. Am I doing something wrong?

[Jennie Huffman @HuffmanJennie]

A3 The gestures allow the students to recall the strategies purpose and how and when to use them – whole brain learning. I have used gestures when teaching parts of speech and found it very successful. #RTfab4
