Texts (that could help) From The Panel Discussion

My thanks to Meg Parker for this wonderful resource.

> It was great to spend time with you guys yesterday!
> > During the panel discussion, I mentioned how it might be a good idea for you to collect some authentic texts that might be motivating for your junior high students. I decided to type up a little list of different types of texts to collect and places where you can find them. The texts are: clothes catalogues, supermarket circulars (like catalogues), teen magazines, postcards, and menus. I've included places where you can find these things along with other important information. > > On pages 3-4, you'll find some ideas on how I've used these texts with students. I'm sure you guys can get creative and think of much better ideas, though!
> > I think your students would get really excited about these materials!
> > Have fun, and enjoy the rest of your time here! Please email if you have any questions! margaretstaffordparker@gmail.com
