Do a Deep Read Assignment using a book for your class or one you appreciate. Keep a “pedagogical diary” and record your thoughts on the process and how it impacted the level of depth in which you see the passage. Then, share the results with your colleagues, academic team, or another homeschooling parent. Consider having your academic team do this together and then share the results and discuss at a team meeting. If you are a homeschool parent, consider sharing with your spouse or a homeschooling friend with similar philosophy of education.
