Summer PD: Talking with Students About Mentor Texts

Word on the street is that I’m sharing professional development sessions with you this summer from the vault…you know, just like Taylor Swift. :)

This week’s PD comes from a four-part series Allison and I created to help teachers help students go deeper in their work with mentor texts, always moving closer and closer to true independence.

Of this series, session 3 was my favorite — it’s all about the language we use and the way we talk about mentor texts with students. And it includes video from my classroom. I hope it’s helpful to you!
