Home learning - The Wind in the Willows 2: technology, obsession and questions for guided reading


Listen Later

In this episode Carl and Mark discuss part two of Kenneth Grahame's classic tale, 'The Wind in the Willows' as a text for guided reading.  They explore three layers of questioning, including retrieval, inference and philosophical questioning and share strategies for using the text in the classroom or at home as a basis for learning and shared meaning. They also talk about how they are coping with the pandemic crisis, distance learning and Joe Wicks exhaustion!
