Claudia M. Greenwood
Cynthia E. Walters

In this practical new guide, the authors show you how literature-based dialogue journals help students become proficient readers and writers. Serving as a natural link between literature circles, reading workshop, and best writing practices, dialogue journals focus on principles of authentic interaction with text across the curriculum, also helping students to understand and better appreciate literature. You'll find the step by step instructions for implementation, along with rich student examples, especially helpful.
