__Researcher__: Patricia Braun __Council__: West Suburban, Two Rivers, ICARE __Category__: Methods, Approaches, Strategies for Promoting Literacy __Description__: I am reading 15 nonfiction articles on physics connections to daily life to 8th graders. They were given a pretest of 40 target words, and will be given a post test on the same words. The read-alouds are simply reading aloud with no discussion or journaling.
