A reader`s notebook can be a place to document thinking and growth, to support thinking for group discussions, and to explore ideas about a text without each one being judged as evidence of reading progress. This book takes teachers through the process of launching, developing, and fine-tuning a reader`s notebook program. Teacher-guided lessons help students create anchor texts for their notebooks using various comprehension and writing strategies. As students` work evolves, the notebook helps them to make connections among ideas, texts, strategies, and more.
