Close Reading with Annotation and Text Codes

Created by

This is the free promo video for my new product The Reader's Trace which is a handbook for teachers who wish to use text coding and annotating to boost engagement and reading comprehension in the classroom. Included in the program are quick-start guides, an extensive library of text codes, all the forms and worksheets I use in my classroom, and differentiated stories for practice. https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Close-Reading-Program-Text-Codes-Annotations-The-Readers-Trace-407482

The Elevated Story Mountain - a better plot diagram

Created by

This ain't yo daddy's plot diagram! This is the most advanced and best story mountain available. I've fused the traditional plot diagram (Freytag's Pyramid) with a three-level story mountain to inspire thematic exploration in fictional and non-fictional narratives. This video will get you started today!
