Kylene Beers, Ed.D., is a former middle school teacher who has turned her commitment to adolescent literacy and struggling readers into the major focus of her research, writing, speaking, and teaching. Give students a head-start on independent reading, and help them enjoy texts in a newer, deeper way with Notice & Note. These lessons can be quickly adapted for use in small groups or conferences with individual students.
#Aha moment signpost definition plus
In Notice & Note, Kylene and Bob help readers put the signposts into action with anchor questions that spark inference and meaning-making plus six detailed lessons that help teachers introduce the signposts to students.
It makes them ideal for small groups, online book clubs, and one-to-one interactions with students. The signposts lend themselves to robust discussion in any learning situation because of their combination of conceptual simplicity and the depth and profundity they bring to a reader’s analysis of a text. “We think that these signposts show up in novels,” write Kylene and Bob, “because they show up in the world.”
These features were highly noticeable and, upon reflection, offer readers something that helps them connect deeply with texts. Through research, they located six moves fiction authors make frequently in commonly taught intermediate and middle grade texts.
The literary signposts introduced in Kylene Beers’ and Bob Probst’s Notice & Note support improved comprehension.
