Reinforcing Compare and Contrast

Hollie Gebhardt is meeting with Matthew to reinforce the strategy of Compare and Contrast. Although this is the first time they are meeting one-on-one, she connects the strategy with the compare-and-contrast work they have been doing in their whole-class lessons. She includes all the components of the instructional protocol, so if you are interested in seeing how to teach, practice, and reinforce a strategy, listen in.

Hollie often sets a camera up so she can watch and refine her practice based on her own reflection. If you haven’t ever done this, you might want to consider it. It has been a powerful strategy in my own professional growth as well, which has led to better learning for students.
