    Students respond to the reading by writing in their journals, conferencing with teachers, and sharing thoughts and ideas within small groups.
    Students take ownership of their own learning and must value the importance of sustained silent reading.
    Teachers give mini-lessons about procedures, reading strategies, or literary skills.
