Mike has supplied three new Possible Selves-related items for the Materials section of the Fusion Striving Readers website:

Possible Selves Questionnaire Highlight Form
Possible Selves for Teachers Slides
Possible Selves Pre-Post Test

Again, these items are all on the materials page. Don’t forget you’ll need to enter the username and password that was supplied to you to download them.

Older versions of the Establish the Course book are missing four pages. These pages are now available for download in the Materials section of this site as individual PDF files. You’ll need to use the username and password provided to you during Fusion Reading professional development to access all files listed on that page.

As a reminder, we’re building a library of downloadable materials for our Fusion Reading teachers to use on the Striving Readers project. You can always get to this library of materials underneath the For Teachers tab in the navigation bar. The course syllabus, professional development plan, and several posters are currently online; I’ve got another batch of posters from Mike that will be posted later this morning.

These materials are password-protected and intended for Fusion Reading teachers on this project only. If you need assistance accessing materials, please contact us (the technology folks back in Kansas) at help@stratepedia.org.
