It is also increasingly important to explicitly teach students the meanings of Greek and Latin roots as they encounter the very technical vocabulary found in science and other content areas.WHY SKETCH NOTESSketch notes present your students with a meaningful and enga

As I scaffold their instruction I usually start to slowly offer it less and less until they can remember all of the important parts to include in each genre. For some classes I have also enlarged it to a poster s
