    Great site

    [url="http://www.greece.k12.ny.us/instruction/ela/6-12/Tools/Index.htm"]http://www.greece.k12.ny.us/instruction ... /Index.htm[/url]


    I just found this site a week ago and thought I would share.

    "These tools should be used to help students engage in rigorous thinking, organize complex ideas, and scaffold their interactions with texts."

    I am quite impressed with the content of it.

    Wow. Someone put a lot of work into that. Tnhanks for posting this.

    I've seen other site like this and the material was obviously created by someone who had very little knowledge of the strategies they were writing about. This person knows what they're doing.

    Thank you very much! I've been trying to come up with a good way to grade participation for my socratic seminars. The rubric on the site is outstanding.
