12. Instructional Strategies needed to help students: Vocabulary Questioning Summarization Writing to Learn Close Reading Argumentation

13. Vocabulary

14. Tier 1Tier 2Tier 3 DescriptionBasic words that most children know before entering school Words that appear frequently in texts and for which students already have a conceptual understanding Uncommon words that are typically associated with a specific domain Examplesclock, baby, happysinister, fortunate, adapt Isotope, peninsula, bucolic Beck, McKeown, Kucan, 2002

15. Direct and Indirect Instruction Repetition and Multiple Exposures Rich Contexts Active Engagement Wide Reading Effective vocabulary instruction provides: Dependence on a single vocabulary instructional method will not result in optimal learning. NRP Report, 2000

17. Engage students periodically in activities that help them add to their knowledge of the terms in their notebooks. A Six-Step Process for Teaching New Terms Free Association Comparing Terms Classifying Terms Solving Analogy Problems Greek & Latin Roots Prefixes & Suffixes See hidden slides on Wiki for more specific description

18. Comparing Terms Sentence Stems Venn Diagrams Double Bubble Matrix Arkansas Department of Education

19. Mitosis (Kinetic Energy) and Meiosis (Potential Energy) are similar because they both ________________ Mitosis (KE) and Meiosis (PE) are different because Mitosis is __________, but Meiosis is ___________. Sentence Stems Example Arkansas Department of Education

20. Double Bubble similar different Cellular Respiration OR Kinetic Energy Arkansas Department of Education Photosynthesis OR Potential Energy

21. Classifying Terms A process of grouping terms by similar attributes. Arkansas Department of Education

22. as Cell membrane Cell Offensive line Football team …won’t let bad things in … relating factor as Tsunami Wave Earthquake Tremor …is an extreme example of … relating factor Solving Analogy Problems Arkansas Department of Education

23. Questioning Questioning the Author (QtA) Question-Answer Relationships (QAR)

24. Right There Think & Search Author & Me On My Own Answer directly in text Put it together from the text Reader figures out meaning from text Wouldn’t have to read text In the BookIn My Head

25. Questioning the Author (QtA) Provides a setting for small group discussions (guided queries) Improves comprehension and critical-thinking skills Leads to students considering the author’s thinking (open-ended questions) Offers a voice to confusion

26. Summarization

27. Summarizing Is not: Retelling Long Full of a lot of interesting details Is: Process of identifying salient information Concise and specific Reinforcing and consolidating the many processes involved in learning from text

28. Substitute subordinate terms for lists Select or invent a topic sentence Delete trivial and redundant material Summarization

29. While Reading: Stop after each section Highlight what you think is key to understanding the text Write a few words out to the side of the most important information concerning topic After Reading: Share with neighbor-what you annotated Add to your key points or delete some after discussion Write a summary in 15-25 words

30. Close Reading

31. Close Reading is… a careful, deliberate reading of a text. It requires paying close attention to what you are reading and focusing in on the relevant details. R.CCR.1 states: Read closely to determine what the text says explicitly and to make logical inferences from it; cite specific textual evidence when writing or speaking to support conclusions drawn from the text.

32. Close Reading is… reading to infer/interpret/draw conclusions. supporting arguments with evidence. resolving conflicting views encountered in source documents. solving complex problems with no obvious answer. Consortium on Reaching Excellence in Education, Inc.

33. Close Reading is NOT… Skimming for answers Surface processing Reading and forgetting Classroom Strategies for Interactive Learning, Buehl, p.4

34. Going Into, Through, and Beyond Getting students “into” a text includes a range of activities that create interest, motivation, and receptivity. Students going “through” the text are annotating, highlighting, asking questions, and discussing. After reading, students go “beyond” the text to deepen their understanding, gain new insights, and apply their new knowledge. Consortium on Reaching Excellence in Education, Inc. HO4

35. Reader Behaviors Readers develop moves, which are actions to help readers understand and remember. Developing Readers in the Academic Disciplines, Buehl, p.224 Video HO1,2,3

36. Close Reading Tools Tools for Close Reading: 1. SOAPS- Speaker, Occasion, Audience, Purpose, Subject 2. Connections- Text-to-Text, Text-to-Self, Text-to-World 3. Three Levels of Questions 4. Arguments and Evidence 5. Assumptions

37. Argumentation

38. Components of Argumentative Writing Analysis of sources Close Reading Precise claim Relevant and sufficient evidence Alternate or opposing claim(s) Logical sequence Appeals/Assumptions Formal style Objective tone 38

40. Frameworks, standards, topic, and assignment Resources Mentor texts “Dear Mr. Sandler” letter “The Faceless Teacher” Sources Write an argument Implementation: 40 Keep the following in mind as they prepare to write: How did the writers of the mentor texts begin their arguments? What word choices were most effective? What appeals did the writers use? What assumptions did the writers make or argue against? How did the writers organize their arguments? What made their conclusions effective? What were some transition statements they used in the mentor texts? Implementation:
