- STEP 1: Provide students with a large piece of complex text, such as “Paul Revere’s Ride” or a multi-step math word problem.
- STEP 2: Have students select pieces of the text that they would like to bookmark as a key detail they would like to remember. They may bookmark as many places as they would like.
- STEP 3: For each bookmarked area, students should select a movement that they could perform that represents that key detail.
- STEP 4: Have students practice performing the full movement they chose for their bookmark.
- STEP 5: Then, students should minimize that movement so that they restrain the range of motion. For instance, if they chose a turning motion to represent a rotation, instead of turning all the way around, they could stand in place and simply rotate their head. They should be able to perform their “marked” motion while seated at their desk.
- STEP 6: Repeat step 5 for each area they have bookmarked.
