  21. Sample Mini-Lessons • Readers/writers reread the charts before they start working. This helps us remember all the things we know about reading and writing. • When we get a little tired of working, we can give our brains a little rest by rereading the charts. This helps us remember what we need to be thinking about when we go back to work. • When readers/writers get stuck, we can go to charts to help us get unstuck. • When readers/writers are done, we bring our work to the chart and check: did I do each of those things?
