Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

This DVD is an important component of the author's message. It includes a video of students engaged in PRC2 in urban classrooms, as well as an example of a content unit developed to support teachers in orchestrating the many components of academic content reading and learning. The unit is a model teachers can adapt to their own content and students. Finally, included are templates for vocabulary activities and directions for using an Excel spreadsheet to create these engaging reinforcement activities.

Here's what makes this DVD unique:

Content Unit Guide: Nonfiction Leveled Text Set on Native Americans

These text sets, books, and articles at varying reading levels on a common topic, are provided to motivate students to read strategically, increase their academic vocabulary and deepen their content knowledge. The teaching suggestions are designed so that teachers can help students practice needed reading comprehension and vocabulary skills in content materials at their instructional levels. We are providing a way of linking content reading with best practice methodology.

Excel® Vocabulary Games
