Abstract
The students in Mr. Mr. Ritter’s classroom’s classroom are introduced with a discussion about current events facilitated by newspaper reading. The relationship between the elements of the students’ prior learning and the new learning are described as being by example, by shared characteristics, spanning time (now-and-then), and spanning location (here-and-there), noting analogous links. Here-and-there links are illustrated through an extended example of Mr. Mr. Ritter’s classroom’s introduction to their unit on expository writing about the culture of China.
