What do you visualize Mattie looks like?

Student: “I visualize the beak being this big (uses hand gesture) and that the bird is HUGE.”

Teacher: “What in the text made you think that?”

Student “…so enormous it is that it weighs as much as the whole body”

Teacher. “Tell me more.”

Student.” If the beak is as big as the body it has to be pretty big.

What do you visualize Mattie looks like?

Student: “I think her beak has these pointy things that shoot off of it”

Teacher: “What in the text made you think that?”

Student: “It said her bump looked like a thorn.”

Teacher: “Let me reread that part.. …her bump looked just like a small horn. When I reread the text, does it change what you visualize?”

erTaking Notes

•5-I listen, I write it down, and I know what to do with it

•3-I listen, I write it down, and I have NO idea what to do with it.

•1-I listen, I don’t write it down because I wouldn’t know what to do with it if I did.

orI don’t need to write it down because I know.

erWhy note taking is essential to the

work of the collaborative classroom…

Patterns• Patterns drive instruction for next day

Goals• Keep goals in front of you-the notes you take depend on

what you want to know

Creating a habit of kid watching• If kids aren’t using the language of the strategy, they don’t

have the strategy deep enough yet

Listening is such a simple act. It requires us to be present, and

that takes practice, but we don’t have to do anything else. We just have to be willing to sit there and

listen. -Margaret Wheatley
