Teaching Students to Read Like Detectives: Engaging with Common Core Standards

In the pursuit of aligning education with Common Core standards, we encourage students to read like detectives and write like investigative reporters. David Coleman emphasizes the need to foster critical thinking skills, as evidenced by a study showing 80% of student questions could be answered without direct text reference. Library Media Specialists play a crucial role in guiding students through text-based analysis and critical thinking strategies across all educational levels. Engage in classroom vignettes, instructional tactics, and peer reflection to enhance your approach to teaching.
