Heide,
I just used the first page with a low intermediate ESL class, drawing out their understanding of the behavior and connecting it to what they already know about their reading skills. As well, as we started reading some text, I related back to the habits that were relevent.
This worked quite well, and it will be something students can use to assess their reading effectiveness. It also gives them some metalanguage.
Thanks! emma
