I now understand why I have always hated to read. In high school we were given difficult texts to read, dissect and comprehend on our own. Then we were given a final essay to write. Rarely, did I understand what I read!
Chapter 4 covers the two extremes of teaching literature. No direction, which I had been taught under and over dissection of material. The chapter wants us to find a happy place in the middle. I know that some of the suggestions for successful teaching (anticipation guides etc.) are already being used by some of our teacher.
