Such a minimal idea that has a huge impact on how students back up their observations. This is a great tool to make students prepared and confident when its time for discussion. It kind of reminds me of a dream diary. Introducing this idea students will not only help them with current assignments, but it will also help as they get older.

How does this strategy enrich discussion?
It helps the students remember what they were thinking or wondering about when they were reading. Instead of remembering what they thought when they were reading, the students can refer to their post it. A great tool to facilitate and encourage discussion.
What is the difference between the Post-it strategy and traditional note-taking?
Post-it strategy is more immediate. It keeps the flow of reading and thought. Plus the note is right where it needs to be for reference.
How could you use this strategy to encourage reluctant students to participate?
The post-it can be used as a crutch or security blankert for those students who are scared they won't know what to say. It makes the process warm versus cold. Also, it could be something a student could pass to another student to read for them. Additionally, I think it would be fun to find some crazy post its to use for reading. Maybe with fun characters on them.
