    Strategy Presentation

    Strategy:

    Materials /media/resources needed to teach the lesson you are presenting today:

    Overview of strategy:
    (Briefly discuss strategy and how/when the strategy would be best used. When would
    it be most effective? What type of students would most benefit from learning this way?

    Minds eye is a reading strategy that uses dual-coding to help students retain
    information read. 20-30 words are selected from a text, and students are asked to
    create a picture in their head as the words are read by the teacher. They then use
    their picture to either draw the picture, ask a question, make a prediction, or
    describe their feelings. After this, they read the text, and reflect on their original
    thoughts compared to what they read.
    This strategy is best used to introduce new, declarative
    information/knowledge. It is most effective when knowledge taught is text-heavy.
    The learning styles the strategy fits are interpersonal and self-expressive.
