Text Set and Coverage
I have been using text sets for a few years now, however, I still usually focus on using them for topic or inquiry studies. I look forward to using them in other ways to help promote writing.
As teachers, we are creating this poster and I would like to see what text students would add to it to reinforce reading and encourage writing.
The text coverage is part of the tracking sheet is helpful, I know I would previously think about the types of text but I can't say I provided a good balance and variety. I was focused on getting students to read and often used fun short narratives.
I have even gone back and realised that what I thought was nonfiction (had some truth) was actually a narrative. I have noticed, I have shared a few more texts across groups so I need to return and update this tracking sheet.
