  • Durante discusiones en clase, active el conocimiento previo para facilitar la elaboración de conexiones.

Further Explanation

Esta evaluación requiere que los estudiantes demuestren si son capaces de identificarse con algún personaje de una historia. Esto puede compartirse de forma oral o escrita.

When students describe personal connections they have made to something read, heard, or viewed, they demonstrate how they have interpreted the explicit and implied ideas expressed. Personal connections are students' reactions to an idea. Personal experience can, and often does, influence these reactions. Students should be encouraged to share their reactions orally or in writing.
connections that a reader makes between a piece of reading material and the reader's own experiences or life

Summary: The article promotes the use of literature circles to support literacy, especially for English learners. Literature circles allow student to interact through sharing ideas, opinions, and personal responses to literature. Students become active participants and learn to manage their literature circle activities, negotiating the structure of their timelines. The study participants were a fourth-grade class in which 5 of the 24 students had varying levels of language acquisition. The use of literature circles led to decreased anxiety about reading and participation and increased reading accuracy and comprehension.
