<p><em>"The essential element in rigor is engagement. If students are to read rigorously they must be committed to understanding some intriguing character, to solving some problem, to figuring out what a writer believes and how those thoughts compare with their own. The literary signposts in </em>Notice and Note <em>encourage this rigor. Now in the </em>Notice and Note Literature Log<em>, we share our signposts with students."<br /> </em>-Kylene Beers <em>and </em>Robert E. Probst<em> </em></p> <p> <strong>transformed how teachers help students read and analyze complex texts.<br /> Now a new <em>Notice and Note</em> <em>Literature Log </em>offers students practice finding the signposts-with over-the-shoulder coaching from Kylene and Bob.</strong> </p> <p>The first section of this interactive notebook offers students passages from popular novels in which they can practice-as a class or on their own-finding the <em>Notice and Note</em> signposts. Each practice passage is followed with comments from Bob and Kylene that explain to students what they read. These passages are perfect for minilessons the teacher might want to use to reinforce or reteach signpost lessons. In the second section, students log the books they are reading. In the final section, students have space to track their thinking and take notes on what they notice as they read novels for class or on their own. </p> <p>The <em>Notice and Note Literature Log </em>is more than a place where students can "note what they notice." Through its regular coaching commentary, this literature log offers students an opportunity, during independent reading, to read and learn with two master educators at their side. <br /> <br /> Save when you purchase the Literature Log in a .
