Reflections
—proficient reading includes critical thinking. You have taught us how to integrate reading and critical thinking—help students understand thinking is allowed.
—now we know why all teachers are reading teachers. (group reflecting-sharing of information during end of summer classes)
—she reads more than the assigned ten minutes since you helped us find books with children who look like her.
I like to read in this class we get to talk about what we have read.
—you are a good teacher ma’am I teach my grandmother to speak English the way you teach me.
—let’s read and talk-ask questions and answer questions all day.
