LITERACY FOCUS: WRITING TO STRENGTHEN READING COMPREHENSION October ERPD, NIHS

September review  ALL curriculum guides (except PE) have writing standards.  ALL curriculum areas have texts students must know how to read: primary source documents, word problems, lab procedures, technical manuals, systems set-up and processes, novels, game rules and scoring, etc.  Writing strengthens students’ ability to understand/remember what is read (0.4 average effect size).  0.4 = the effect of one year’s worth of expected student growth

September review  Writing frames assist students in writing about content-knowledge while helping to prevent them from getting “stuck” in the process of writing.  Writing Frames are easy to differentiate and scaffold based on individual needs.

September review Writing Frame example for struggling students: “Closed” or “Fill-in-the- blank” Civics and Economics Ch. 20, pg. 539 The American ____ __________ ______ gives numerous ______ and ___________ to ___________ such as you, your teachers, your relatives, and your friends. You have the _____ __ _____ just about any __________ or ________ in which you are interested. You have the _____ to ___ the ________ and ______ that you like, and to ______, or pass on, others. As a ________, or _______ ___ ____ a _______ or _______, you also have _______________.

September review Writing Frame example for medium- support students Civics and Economics Ch. 20, pg. 539 The _______________________ system gives ___________ ________________________________________________ _ ________________________________________________. First, I have the right to ______________________________ ________________________________________________. Secondly, it allows me to ____________________________ ________________________________________________. However, I also have responsibilities as a _______________, or someone ______________________________________.

October Focus: writing continued Take-away: As a PLC, create a writing frame for an upcoming lesson. Submit a digital copy (this can be a picture,.pdf, word attachment, screen shot, etc.) to Natalie Williams by 10/23 (the same day as your literacy planning period training with Y. Karriker).

October Focus: writing continued While frames help guide students to produce a written “end-product,” many teachers also utilize writing as a way help students remember material covered in class, via Note-taking!
