There are many things that were brought up in class that I would have liked to talk about a bit more indepth. When we were going around in our groups quickly about the Thompkins text, I think we could have done something much better with that, however time did not allow. We all came up with a lot of cool ideas to use in a classroom when integrating all the pieces that help to improve reading comprehension, but we had so much else to do we did not get to discuss to a point of usefulness. In one of our special education classes this was all we did all semester. We came up with many many strategies on how to get children to comprehend better. It was a hard class, but definitely one that I have learned the most from. The strategies that we were exposed to go way beyond what the Thompkins text presents us, although that is a good base. I feel that in our regular ed. classes these are just things that we touch on for a minute, such as in class today, but I feel that we as teachers need to spend much more time on it.
