I wonder if anyone has used the new 3 Reads Tool for reading the graphic biographies? I wonder how the class went for you? What suggestions do you have to make it great?

Hi Kristin Rimal ! I have used this tool before! I try to use at least 1 graphic bio per unit and use this tool alongside it.
We do the "observe" part together as a class. I zoom into the graphic bio on the smart board and we do some initial skimming of images, text, and design choices. We jot down the observations together as a class.
The read/understand part is done together in small groups of 4 students. And then I have students work on the connect portion independently. I rotate around the room as parts 2 & 3 are happening and give verbal time prompts to move the class along. We share answers to parts 2 and 3 at the end of the period.
I sometimes assign the second page for homework. Other times, I omit that page.
