Into the Book: Behind the Lesson is an unscripted professional development series that features exemplary
teachers effectively teaching their students to be strategic readers. The Summarizing episode features 2nd- grade teacher, Judy Felsenthal working with
her students. Watch this episode to see how Judy successfully teaches a summarizing lesson using the gradual release method of teaching. After the
lesson, Dr. Michael P. Ford, professor of reading education at the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh, interviews Judy about her reading comprehension
lesson and her methods for helping children think about their reading.
