Reseña del editor

Share the experience of two educators who developed a curriculum that brought art and reading together to strengthen their students' understanding of text. This rich resource provides detailed explanations of six comprehension strategies - developing sensory images, building and activating schema, questioning, determining importance, inferring, and synthesis; in-depth arts lessons that incorporate these strategies and assess students' learning; and additional lessons that can be adapted to different grade levels. The book also offers students' artwork and writing samples and individual case studies of learners with special needs. The appendixes include an art matrix for implementing lessons; directions for art projects and drama techniques; blackline masters of assessment forms; and resource lists of books, websites, and art suppliers. Weaving Through Words will help you provide students with a variety of ways to improve their reading comprehension.
