I'm a eighth grade teacher, mom, wife, and doctoral student (EdD) at Grand Canyon University.

I am looking for teachers who use reciprocal teaching. I would like to ask them questions about their successes and struggles. Any help to find teachers would be much appreciated.

I need help finding teachers who use reciprocal teaching.

@teachthomps Basic EL supports: realia, sentence stems, and expect to front-load background information. It's a struggle to recognize unknown words that impact their comprehension. It is hard for them to create questions. Use role cards. I used Google to find good basics for them to use.

Hello! I am doing my dissertation on the power of reciprocal teaching when working with struggling readers. I have used this with EL students in primary grades and have seen it work with high school students as well. @teachthomps

@helenutbildar My 8th-grade students use reciprocal teaching at times in our English class and they LOVE it.

Had my 8th graders create a song using the top 20 prepositions. LOTS of resistance, but SOOOO AWESOME!! They enjoyed it and have made some great songs!

@loudlearning I tell my daughters' teachers so that they can let me know if they are acting unusual, struggling with things that have previously been addressed, and can look for flags that something is not working. I want to be informed if I need to make a doc appointment to switch meds.

Having students create a Fakebook profile for one of the main characters in the Call of the Wild. This will be in replacement for a test on the story. Trying to be creative!

Half-way through Call of the Wild. We are going to do reciprocal teaching on Tuesday with the students doing the jobs that THEY have selected. We will see how it goes...I am expecting awesome!

[Maggie Lilleskov @MaggieLilleskov]

I still haven't come up with anything that will be new and exciting for the students. Ideas? https://t.co/ogkHdaEcPg

Looking for a different way to teach Call of the Wild to my 8th graders. its a few weeks out and want something powerful and impacting.
