Curriculum 21: Essential Education in a Changing World

15 years ago

In this Webinar

Reciprocal teaching, or the “Fab Four,” is a proven research-based method that yields up to .74 growth in reading comprehension in one year or less (Hattie, 2008). When teachers incorporate robust reciprocal teaching strategies – predict, question, clarify, and summarize – student engagement and achievement improve. In this interactive webinar, you’ll hear about one educator’s "go-to" close reading lessons, and you’ll walk away with an engaging menu of short and sharp mini-lessons to use with any text.
