Carousel brainstorming is a great collaborative strategy that can be used in a range of content areas. It was really awesome to see the students doing this reflective wrap-up activity following reading a novel in Spanish. Students annotated the text with the symbols, then reflected about the annotations on sticky notes. Students then did an annotation walk and took notes on other students reflections. Collaboration, note-taking, inquiry, critical reading and organizing thinking, I think all part of WICOR are wrapped up right here.

AuthorAmanda Vogel has been teaching since 2007. With a background in special education and literacy instruction, I have been teaching in AVID schools for my entire career. I have seen first hand the powerful impact that AVID can have both on student in the elective class but also in supporting school wide improvements that works for all students. I am by no means an expert, but I hope that by sharing the experiences at our school we can build a community together. Archives
