- -Reading notebook entries and sample classroom conversations to use as benchmarks
- -Strategies for deepening the three most prevalent types of thinking students do when synthesizing: Right-Now Thinking (on the page), Over-Time Thinking (across a picture book, a chapter, or longer text), or Refining Thinking (nuanced connections across text and life concepts)
- -Strategies for deepening the three most useful types of thinking—feelings, frames, and opinions—when considering perspectives
- -Online video clips of Renee and Gravity teaching, conferring, and “thin slicing” what nonfiction readers need next
