Reminder: Keep the model brief and strategic, one minute long, and use a couple reading processes that support the literacy goal for the text.

If a more extensive model is needed, you might try using a reciprocal model where you model a bit and then orchestrate a Metacognitive Conversation about what you modeled. Then you invite one or more students to model their reading processes for a bit. The you orchestrate a Metacognitive Conversation about what the student modeled. Then you can continue with another bit of teacher modeling.

Recall the video of the teacher and student reading ‘Superman and Me.’
