Book Shout Out to...Crime & Puzzlement!
This book was suggested by Janet Steinberg from TC and I've been using it with my upper grade special education students. Not only are they TOTALLY into it (and surprisingly slightly addicted), but it's been amazing at helping them monitor for details and use evidence to back up their ideas and claims.Also great for helping students process the text and revise their thinking. The various mysteries with the detailed pictures encourages students to dig deep, generate ideas, synthesize ALL of the information AND become more comfortable with revising their initial ideas and predictions as they learn more information and identify under the surface details.
Find it on Amazon here!
