In this book you will read many examples of rich literacy
conversations between a teacher and his 8th grade students that
never would have occurred face to face in the classroom. These
conversations take place online when 8th graders write to their
teacher about the books they're interested in reading and choosing
to read independently. Students write about what happens when they
read or don't read, how they feel about reading, how they're
connecting with characters and ideas, why they don't have enough
time to read, and what their reading goals are. And their teacher
writes back to them. Every week. After each conversation you will
read some "meta-talk" that shines a light on what the conversation
has taught us about this language learner and how this "data"is
informing our beliefs and practices. Embedded within the chapters
are suggested resources (articles, book recommendations, links,
websites, blogs, etc.) you can follow should you want to read more
in that chapter. What these students reveal about their own
literacy development- their successes, their challenges, their
lives- and how their teacher nudges them along socially,
emotionally and academically, teach us the value and power of one
practical, authentic literacy tool- the Reading Conversation
Journal.
