The Forest AND the Trees begins with ways to get students in grades 58 looking for detailsparticularly those that contribute to meaning. From there through end-of-year testing, Kissners activities help students make better inferences, uncover main ideas more easily, and use details to create interpretations. Best of all, students will be better able to support their ideas in discussion, classroom writing, multiple-choice exams, and on-demand responses.
