Reading and writing go hand in hand. To become a good writer, you need to understand the written language. My students will be exposed to great literature that will show them how important it is to understand what you are reading. When you understand what you are reading, you become a better writer. My students will use highlighters to highlight important parts while reading informational texts. Then with the classroom lights off each student will use their black lights to paraphrase by identifying details and transforming them into a text structure (using glow-in-the-dark highlights). Their highlighted phrases will then be used to paraphrase the text.
