Overview of the strategy
The Hot Spots strategy is a tactile and interactive method to allow students to seek and receive
clarification for unfamiliar ideas and words found while reading.

Strategy procedure
1.  Choose and distribute a text on the students’ instructional level and that contains unfamiliar words and/or  ideas. Distribute small, brightly colored sticky notes.
2.  Instruct the students to scan the text individually and mark each unfamiliar word or phrase with a sticky note. These are “hot spots.” Have the students go to the board as they finish reading and write their hot spots on the
board, together with page and paragraph numbers to identify the spots. Encourage all students to contribute until all their hot spots have been listed.
3.  Erase the duplicates.
4.  Ask for volunteers to clarify the hot spots identified by others. Add clarification as needed, and refer students to clues in the text as well as to examples in their background knowledge. Continue until all the hot spots have been clarified. Encourage students to examine the hot spots in context and to connect them with prior knowledge when possible.
5.  Have students read the text either individually or with partners. Since the preparation for reading has been so robust, the text might be assigned as homework.
