‘Teachers Know A Lot About Scaffolding’ For Complex Texts is my latest post over at Education Week Teacher.

It’s Part Two in a series on…scaffolding for complex texts.

Part One featured responses from three educators: Wendi Pillars, Amy Benjamin, and Christopher Lehman.

Today’s post includes three joint commentaries from Nancy Frey and Douglas Fisher; Tammy Mulligan and Clare Landrigan; and Aaron Brock and Jody Passanisi.
