"At Broadway Junior School in Gateshead teachers have been using dance across the curriculum to engage learners of all abilities. Teacher Chris Horn has made a Teacher Video about the process called 'Dancing across the Curriculum' that shows his class exploring sentence structure.
In the video Chris and his class combine words in extended sentences and express these as short dance sequences that they have devised themselves. In the discussion that follows, Educational Consultant Adrienne Jones is joined by Chris, fellow teacher, Andrea Noble and Headteacher Margarita Acklam to consider the issues raised by the video. They discuss the benefits to pupils' learning particularly in terms of creativity, self-esteem and achievement. We see another example of geography combined with dance, exploring ideas about scale from mountain to sand. They conclude by considering how teacher video supports CPD and can help non-specialists embrace this kind of innovation."

Readers in grades 3–6 present unique challenges and opportunities for teachers. Many intermediate readers can decode text well, but few have the skills required for the thick textbooks and complex literature they will encounter in the middle grades and beyond. Teachers need to guide students as they develop sophisticated strategies for tackling a variety of new text, while helping students cultivate the independence and self-reflection they need for reading success beyond the elementary grades.
Bringing Reading to Life is a series of four video programs filmed in Franki Sibberson's fifth-grade classroom. The eighteen classroom vignettes present a vibrant portrait of readers at work, delving into novels and nonfiction with ease and confidence, even as they grapple with the new demands of increasingly difficult texts. Franki and colleague Karen Szymusiak show the importance of thoughtful room design and classroom library layout, carefully structured reading groups, brief whole-class lessons, extended discussions that build on previous reading experiences, and individual reading in a wide range of texts.
Franki and Karen also demonstrate a multitude of teaching and learning strategies that help students in grades 3–6 thrive, including mini-lessons, conference and discussion techniques, reading notebook design and use, small-group structures and writing extensions, and read-aloud routines.

In Kelly Gallagher's high school classroom in Anaheim, California, students are not only learning to comprehend difficult novels and texts, they are developing the skills and behaviors of lifelong readers. Drawing from his books Reading Reasons and Deeper Reading, Kelly's new video set brings effective reading strategies to life. Presenting examples of both small- and whole-group discussions, Building Adolescent Readers demonstrates how to engage students with a variety of texts, teaching them what it means to be a good reader. Program 1: The Six Building Blocks Before we teach students how to read better, we need to help them understand why they should be readers. Kelly outlines his six blocks for motivating students to read more—both recreationally and academically. He models specific classroom lessons that help students to internalize the value of reading. Program 2: First Draft Reading Adolescent readers often adopt one of two universal strategies when they are confronted with difficult text: they either quit or dutifully continue, even though they do not understand what they are reading. In this program Kelly models a number of useful strategies to help students not only monitor their comprehension, but to also fix their comprehension when it begins to falter. Program 3: Second Draft Reading Revisiting a text helps students uncover its deeper layers of meaning. Kelly demonstrates numerous strategies that help students move past an “I read it once; I'm done” mentality and into richer second draft reading. He also discusses the importance assessment plays in planning an effective reading lesson.
