Group/Peer InterviewPoint of View Guide (POVG)

• Questions are presented in an interview format− This allows students to approach the question or

task at hand from different characters’ points of view and perspectives

• Students have the option to respond to a situation • Brings up inferential thinking (based on prior

knowledge and evidence), role playing, and writing in the first person − This can help ideas flow.− This is helpful for students who are shy or who on

average struggle getting their own ideas on paper• Allows for collaborative and interactive effort between

peers• Allows for role playing and writing in the first person• This can also help students compile their thoughts or

think abstractly. • The POGV theme helps when students find it difficult

to summarize stories or themes

Index Card Activity• Microtheme – A brief piece of writing that

results in a great deal of thinking ( p. 285, Vacca & Vacca).

• More isn’t always best

• Can be often be referred to as mini-essays

• Often students will jot down notes about key points before writing their microtheme

• Writing to learn can be a personal experience

• Allows students to actively contribute and connect, analyze, and summarize their own experiences
