One thing I really liked was how the students would be proofreading their work. I think I can use this idea for their data binders. I'll put a list for proofreading into their data binders; as they check their work, they put a paperclip on the list next to what they are checking. It should help them to focus on one rule at a time, instead of trying to check the entire paper for multiple errors simultaneously.
The ebook also encouraged lots of oral writing, practicing with a buddy. I am excited try this out, increasing the oral writing to include different nouns, verbs, and adjectives.
The Guff Counter is new for me, too. As I read over the forum discussions on www.wholebrainteacing.com I linked over to the Guff Counter...http://www.wholebrainteaching.com/index.php/whole-brain-teching/levels/level-3-the-guff-counter.html, I got excited to add this to the Scoreboard procedures. I'll let you know how this goes!
