I posed the question, gave them three or four minutes to discuss their answers with their tablemates while I circulated and chimed in. Then I counted down from five to wrap up each discussion. Worked great!Chris Margocshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18261261993571716230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-303316735393486980.post-59790558142734396252015-06-03T16:26:07.363-05:002015-06-03T16:26:07.363-05:00Love that you shared the five W's in your comm...Love that you shared the five W's in your comment to Dana.

Having the kids talk with each other about who they'll read to/with (or what, like their pets!), what they'll read, when (I tell them I'm a morning reader), where, and most importantly, why, made their summer reading plan concrete. I also remind them to get lots of fresh air! ;-)Chris Margocshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18261261993571716230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-303316735393486980.post-16259238853021068092015-06-02T21:32:10.782-05:002015-06-02T21:32:10.782-05:00They really seem to respect my encouragement to re...They really seem to respect my encouragement to read more when I show them how I am a reader, too.
