We have opportunities to practice literacy skills in big and small ways daily.

We give students

Southern Regional Education Board, 2009 Policy Statement, page 5 “Asking a teacher to become a reading teacher is distinctly different from asking a teacher to help students master texts within the teacher’s own field... In fact, subject-area teachers are best qualified to help their students master texts in each course. Subject-area teachers should not be expected to teach basic reading skills, but they can help students develop critical strategies & skills for reading texts in each subject.” “Asking a teacher to become a reading teacher is distinctly different from asking a teacher to help students master texts within the teacher’s own field...

This frees the frontal lobe for critical thinking.

Levels of Competence Part Two Part Two

Four Stages of Competence 1. Unconscious Incompetence (I don’t know what I don’t know.) I am unaware that I don’t understand or know how to do something, because I have never needed this skill or been aware of it. I may deny the usefulness of the skill. 1. Unconscious Incompetence (I don’t know what I don’t know.) I am unaware that I don’t understand or know how to do something, because I have never needed this skill or been aware of it. I may deny the usefulness of the skill. 2. Conscious Incompetence (I know what I don’t know.) I become aware that I don’t know or understand or know. I also begin to realize that I want or need this skill and it would be valuable to learn. 2. Conscious Incompetence (I know what I don’t know.) I become aware that I don’t know or understand or know. I also begin to realize that I want or need this skill and it would be valuable to learn. 3. Conscious Competence (I know what it is but have to think about it to do it.) I understand or know how to do something. I can show you, but it requires concentration and effort. It may need to be broken down into steps. 3. Conscious Competence (I know what it is but have to think about it to do it.) I understand or know how to do something. I can show you, but it requires concentration and effort. It may need to be broken down into steps. 4. Unconscious Competence (Piece of cake.) I have had so much practice with a skill that I don’t really need to think about what to do. It has become "second nature" and can be performed with few errors. Because it is not occupying my conscious thoughts, I can do this while I’m doing another task and I am able to teach it to others. 4. Unconscious Competence (Piece of cake.)
