Responding

Responding to what we see, read, hear and feel will provide us with opportunities to have our opinions 'heard'! Ways in which this can happen are varied and I am sure that as we work through the various stages of this subject you will begin to build lists and provide examples of the ways that this can happen.

One example is to record our thoughts and feelings about your Wide Reading novel in a Reading Journal. This may take the form of a notebook where you write your thoughts and feelings and choose with whom you share these ideas. An other way is by using a blog, which is a form of an online journal, the audience though is much larger as anyone on the net can access your material, they can also provide you with feedback by posting comments. If you would like to explore this medium further please see Mrs Burrows.
