Give a thorough explanation of the strategy as it is described in the original source.
There are several types of Journals for students to choose from. Personal Journals, Dialogue journals, Learning Logs, Writer’s Notebook and Reading Logs are the ones that are mentioned here. Journals are useful because they improve writing, they help students to think critically, help students to explore their values and the authors and they are helpful in assessing student progress. The teacher can choose from these five types of Journals for the one that goes best with what they are trying to accomplish in the classroom.
