Notes
Reviewing strategies used during a read-aloud can be done in any grade with any text. Whether the teacher shares by making their metacognitive process transparent, or students share what they noticed, the review helps reinforce and anchor the learning we want students to maintain in their own reading.

Reflect
- Trish has high expectations for her students. What surprised you about these young learners?
- How might the idea behind this follow-up work with your students?
