Comprehension and Collaboration: Inquiry Circles in Action occurs at the intersection of comprehension, collaboration, and inquiry. This workshop is designed for teachers who want to realize the benefits of well-structured, student-led, cross-curricular projects. Stephanie Harvey will discuss:
• laying the foundation for inquiry circles by chronicling the current research and practices behind comprehension instruction and classroom collaboration
• present practical lessons in comprehension, collaboration, and research
• offer how-to instructions for four types of inquiry circles—mini-research projects; curricular inquiries; extensions of literature circles; and open inquiry projects
