Getting to Know Your Students, ch. 4

I find that having reading conferences with our students is a great way to understand them in more ways than one.

It's one that is going to require lots and lots of practice. However, Taberski outlines a system that seems within reach.

I totally agreed with you there. These running records tells me about which students of mine are struggling or what cueing system they are using. I noticed that I can learned about their grammar as well. Sometimes when they read, they forget to emphasize the words that are pural.
