<p>Has anyone used these works as a basis for a reading comprehension program? We are working to implement this from kindergarten to Grade 12. We have quite a few of the tool kits designed by Stephanie Harvey and gang for students up to about grade 8, but haven't gotten into the high school end yet.</p>

<p>The main reason we chosen this is that its about making kids THINK while they read, rather than being passive with text. Our Division I teacher is seeing solid success with it in her room, and we are going to be trying to scaffold that success to our higher grades.</p>
<p></p>
<p>One of the big pieces to this program that we're missing is the connection to others who are using this program. I'm hoping this is the place to come to remedy that. :)</p>
<p></p>
<p>I'm looking to share ideas, pick brains (<grin>) and so on with anyone who might have had the opportunity to see this program in practice, used it, or sat in on any PD sessions by Stephanie Harvey and her associates.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Thanks and looking forward to making connections!</p>

I am looking for an educator who is up to speed on the transition for LMM.<br />
<br />
Having just upgraded my laptop to a Windows 7 machine to edit a research project in Movie Maker, I was quite disapionted to find that Movie Maker is no longer bundled in the OS. Movie Maker Live now needs to be downloaded, and is incompatible with all previous verisions of the product.<br />
<br />
It is also a very basic, stripped down product that has been completely re-engineered from the ground up. They have eliminated the timeline, which makes any kind of deliberate editing impossible.<br />
<br />
Has anyone located something to take the place of MM in the future, when the schools do the next major upgrade? I know most of us are still in older systems, but I want to look ahead and get the ball rolling to be ready to recommend a suitable option for any upgrade planning. I just ASSUMED that the product would be even better, and was really disappointed when I tried it out.

Hi there, 2nd year blogging and using technology in the classroom with my kids. We're looking for classrooms to blog with and perhaps work on some collaborative projects. Open for ideas on incorporating classroom 2.0 into our classroom. This year I will have about 35 grade 7 students and about 70 grade 8 students teaching them English, History and Geography.
