I was trying to explain to my gifted grade six students WHY they had to respond the way I am teaching them using APEC. I felt compelled to tell them that the teachers who are "marking" EQAO won't be there to listen to them talk in the literature circles we normally use. My students are used to sharing, and discussing, not having to write it all out. I have had to give them lots of practice using this format, in order for them to be comfortable and successful on standardized tests. I'm glad they asked, but the "reality" of the answer is kind of depressing.<br />SidneyMs.M from Teachingisagifthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10482334866440146334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7692820425397337922.post-89910947940649452912013-04-06T12:03:01.174-04:002013-04-06T12:03:01.174-04:00Thanks for sharing this resource.
