I stop the recording every now and then so we can discuss, ask questions, make predictions, etc.Mary Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09078793537148794310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20429083.post-42957630333670959682012-03-14T19:32:47.722-04:002012-03-14T19:32:47.722-04:00If your kids want more, try When You Reach Me by R...If your kids want more, try When You Reach Me by Rebecca Stead. Great time travel, mystery-type book with Wrinkle references aplenty. I used it as read aloud and my kids loved it!<br /><br />What format are you using for annotating? Workshop? Whole class? Small group? Just curious.... Your class is making some wonderful conclusions and connections and I'd love to know how you supported them into doing that.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16415210879367772455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20429083.post-91671318250784959372012-03-14T15:43:03.913-04:002012-03-14T15:43:03.913-04:00Mary Lee, I just re-read the book earlier this yea...Mary Lee, I just re-read the book earlier this year & reviewed it. What a marvelous gift you've given your students (via MacMillan). I was already grown when it came out, so discovered it as an adult, and still loved it. I hope also that they learn to follow the rest of the adventures L'Engle set out so vividly. It's a wonderful book.Linda Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14983144542632353870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20429083.post-65500677750769379962012-03-14T11:12:12.482-04:002012-03-14T11:12:12.482-04:00I love that book!

It would be a great follow for some interested kids to try! Have fun!Neffer1982https://www.blogger.com/profile/09196709515118425479noreply@blogger.com
