https://padlet.com/moegebr/hm4ph7ix4bou9ab5 What questions or concerns do we have about RC? en-us 2022-11-09 07:11:43 UTC 2025-12-11 05:16:40 UTC hello@padlet.com moe_cpdd_gebel5 https://padlet.com/moegebr/hm4ph7ix4bou9ab5/wish/2376331940 1.  Post EACH question or concern as one post.  
2. Make sure you add in your name in brackets so we know whose post it is.  ]]> 2022-11-09 07:11:43 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/hm4ph7ix4bou9ab5/wish/2376331940 https://padlet.com/moegebr/hm4ph7ix4bou9ab5/wish/2382469986 How can the teacher harness RC approach in crafting assessments for rich texts, given the range of Reader Responses to expect if we were to set a perspective-taking question?

Do we feed them background information first - and to what extent is this feasible?

What qualities would we expect them to exhibit by the end of the programme for us to say that they have gained from this experience? I understand this will differ from student to student but in general, what is the expectation when it comes to reading the text?

What role does the teacher play during sharing of responses prior to documenting them?

How does the teacher mediate radical views while still maintain a safe space?]]> 2022-11-14 07:57:34 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/hm4ph7ix4bou9ab5/wish/2382473787 https://padlet.com/moegebr/hm4ph7ix4bou9ab5/wish/2382474056 How else can the teacher get everyone's responses if students are shy or unwilling to share? How do we measure how much they have gained from the RC experience?]]> 2022-11-14 07:57:45 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/hm4ph7ix4bou9ab5/wish/2382474056 https://padlet.com/moegebr/hm4ph7ix4bou9ab5/wish/2382475834 1. In the Primer and Toolkit compiled, there is a Padlet involved. Does this mean loaning out of devices? Can the reading response be done orally? Like a Book Club.

2. Isn't the Reading Circles more suitable for the high progress students who have the language proficiency?

3. Many of the students do not have enough personal experiences for them to make connections with the text due to experiences limited to extra classes and/or devices. Do we have to provide them with the experiences in order for them to connect with the text?

While it is good to have different perspectives shared regardless of ability, the HP pupils will definitely be able to articulate their thoughts better as compared to those from the MP and LP. Will they (HP) be at a disadvantage, at risk of being the 'answer key' for the others?

Should we discuss every chapter, one by one?

Or choose selective ones? If so, how do we decide what to discuss in class and what to skip?]]> 2022-11-14 08:08:43 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/hm4ph7ix4bou9ab5/wish/2382487058 https://padlet.com/moegebr/hm4ph7ix4bou9ab5/wish/2382490725 What is an ideal or class size for an effective reading circle session?

Do you have some videos to show how the lessons were carried out from Session 1? What are some of the things that the teacher needs to prepare for the lessons?]]> 2022-11-14 08:26:50 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/hm4ph7ix4bou9ab5/wish/2382509174 https://padlet.com/moegebr/hm4ph7ix4bou9ab5/wish/2382510674 Should there be a longer Reading Circles session as I feel that it takes some time for pupils to share among groups and then with the class. ]]> 2022-11-14 08:28:06 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/hm4ph7ix4bou9ab5/wish/2382510674 https://padlet.com/moegebr/hm4ph7ix4bou9ab5/wish/2382519600 Teacher acts as a facilitator during the discussion. In the video, we could see that the teacher revoices, rephrases and guides them back to the discussion when they digress. 

How do we balance the sharing between the spontaneous students and those who need time to phrase their thinking? Should we keep track of those who had shared?]]> 2022-11-14 08:35:46 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/hm4ph7ix4bou9ab5/wish/2382519600 https://padlet.com/moegebr/hm4ph7ix4bou9ab5/wish/2382522812 There are 8 sessions for each module involving novels e.g : Frindle.
