8. Finding Common Ground

Professional Reflection

Take a step back from your classroom and examine the video clip in relation to your own instructional practices. Use the questions below to spark discussion about instructional practices in department meetings, team meetings, or as a prompt in your own professional journal.

Consider:

  • How might your students (or their parents) respond to extended periods of independent reading?
  • What kinds of support would your students need to be able to choose their own books?
  • What support would your students need to learn to read for an extended time on their own?
