| Abstract | It's much easier to help and encourage all teachers to become teachers of reading when you have this 15-minute DVD for individual teacher checkout or teacher meetings. Scenes from high school classrooms show how teachers in biology classes use several reading strategies to bolster their students' reading skills while conveying essential biology and science content. The strategies demonstrated on the video include foldables, quickwrite, vocabulary bingo, booklets, pre-writing (oval word balloon), pipe-cleaner Venn diagrams, oral reading, circle reading, and interactive notebooks. Interviews with teachers address issues that are critical to classroom decisions, such as why to teach reading and writing in a biology class, what students need to understand to be able to comprehend and apply science texts, and how to teach important vocabulary that is essential to the subject. |
