Mindsets & Moves is the guide to how to let go of your default roles of assigner, monitor, and inspector and instead shift to a growth mindset by following the 4Ms:

1. Miner: Uncovering Students’ Reading Processes (Focus: Assessment)


2. Mirror: Giving Feedback That Reinforces a Growth Mindset (Focus: Feedback)


3. Model: Showing Readers What We Do (Focus: Demonstration]


4. Mentor: Guiding Students to Try New Ways of Reading (Focus: Guided Practice and Coaching)

Easily replicable in any setting, any time, the 4 M framework ultimately lightens the load because they allow students to monitor and direct their reading lives. The book is full of practical examples, lessons, reading process and strategy lists, and a 35-page photo tour of exemplary reading classrooms with captions that distill best practices.
