- Responses to Reflections on Framing Literacy 3,
I thought I will add something to Aracely's quotation of the Read Aloud Handbook,
by Jim Trelease, "reading aloud is just as important if not more important
than independent reading."
Read not to contradict and confute; nor to believe and take for granted;
nor to find talk and discourse; but to weigh and consider. Francis Bacon
(1561–1626),
English philosopher, essayist, statesman. Essays, “Of Studies” (1597–1625).
This is something I read, and thought that it applies so much to
what teachers are constantly stressing to students. To think on and about what
they read (that is "weigh") and then reflect (that is "consider").
To be able to go beyond the obvious and and show greater comprehension of the
material in hand.
Thanks, Smita
Smita, it reminds me of Ada's levels of critical literacy, taking lectors
through and past the descriptive phase of meaning making to the:
Personal Interpretive Phase text to self...
Critical Analysis Phase is this relevant...
Creative Action Phase solutions and transition.
