EngageNY.org Overview of the 3-8 ELA Curriculum Modules Session 1A, February 2014 NTI

Who We Are 2  Expeditionary Learning (EL) is a non-profit network of practitioners, with 165 schools in 30 states, 4,000 teachers and 40,000 students.  We have been working with schools and teachers for 20 years to create rigorous classrooms in which develop strong literacy, numeracy, and critical thinking skills.  We have a proud history of working in New York State and have engaged teams of teachers from high-performing classrooms throughout the state to help develop our curriculum modules. EngageNY.org

We have always viewed every teacher - regardless of subject area, grade or specialization - as a teacher of readers, writers, and content. This was a natural connection for us. Via intensive collaboration with Student Achievement Partners (SAP) and with the input of teachers from across the country, we have created a curriculum that engages students and supports teachers in building students’ capacity to read, think, talk, and write about complex texts. A Deep Partnership

Effective Collaboration Norms and Guidelines Seven Norms of Collaboration 1. Promoting a Spirit of Inquiry and Balancing Advocacy 2. Pausing 3. Paraphrasing 4. Probing 5. Putting Ideas on the Table 6. Paying Attention to Self and Others 7. Presuming Positive Intentions EngageNY.org

The Norms for Collaboration We ask you to process thinking with each other often and hope that you will be thoughtful about your own development of relational trust with your NTI colleagues. Use the Norms Inventory to think about the strengths you will bring to collaborative discussions and places where you might need to be more conscious of being your best self. EngageNY.org5

NTI Learning Targets EngageNY.org6

NTI Focus The effective use of the available time for additional literacy instruction Research-based recommendations Explore strategies for adapting the modules including looking at module assessments EngageNY.org7

These books are complemented by rigorous, authentic informational text embedded within the curriculum itself. EngageNY.org

10 Unit 1 Unit 2 Unit 3 Module 1Module 2Module 3Module 4 Each Module Contains Three Units In addition to instruction linked to the central text(s), each unit includes a text list of suggested classroom resources at all levels, which can be used with students at other times of the day.

Curriculum Plan- A Year at A Glance Notice the headings:  “Becoming a Close Reader”  “Researching to Build Knowledge” Standards are arranged in this manner to provide focus on a coherent set of standards at a time.
