Dinah Zike, program consultant for McGraw-Hill's Glencoe Literature: Texas Treasures, will discuss "Taking the 'DIS' from -Engaged and -Interested With Self-Made 3-D Interactive Learning Tools." Ms. Zike's renowned graphic organizers, Foldables(TM) are incorporated into Glencoe Literature: Texas Treasures, a comprehensive collection of engaging literature and nonfiction with integrated skill development and targeted differentiated instruction for Texas students in Grades 6-12. In the session, Ms. Zike will get teachers excited about involving adolescents in active learning by exploring the use of 3-D graphic organizers. She'll show how these organizers can become powerful, tactile rechargeable tools to immerse adolescents in cross-curricular literacy and vocabulary development, build vital learning ownership, and maximize multiple modalities and intelligences. Ms. Zike will share numerous examples of how 3-D graphic organizers can be used to motivate and engage middle and high school students. "The Foldables activities are ideal for Glencoe Literature: Texas Treasures," said Steve Mico, senior vice president of the McGraw-Hill Literacy & Humanities Learning Solutions Center. "Our literature program engages students through high interest literature and nonfiction presented through inquiry-based Big Questions and Big Ideas, and Foldables activities give students a reason and a tool for taking notes as they explore each unit."
