GSSD Coaches
Cindy Smith & Andrea Hnatiuk
*
*
*We start and end on time
*We are a community of professionals, we
participate fully, encourage participation from
others, and allow ourselves to be learners
*We create a safe place to be heard, we can
take risks
*We respect everyone’s point of view
*We use technology appropriately in the spirit of
professional learning
*
*What is Literacy?
What will I be able to do when
I am done here today?
I can identify and implement
effective instructional
strategies that can be used in
content areas
What is important for me to
learn and understand so that I
can hit the target?
I must learn and understand
student need support in content
area literacy
What will I do to show that I
understand?
I can implement effective cross
curricular literacy instructional
strategies that meet and assist
student learning outcomes.

*Why do students have
difficulty reading
academic texts?
*“The need to guide
adolescents to advanced stages
of literacy is not necessarily
the result of any teaching or
learning failure in the
preschool or primary years;
rather, it is a necessary next
step in normal reading
development.”
* -McCombs et al., 2005, pp. 2-3 as cited in Buehl, D. (2011)

*Intermediate Literacy
*Discipline Literacy

When to use it?
Ease of use?
Pros?
Cons?
What students will benefit?
*
*“I have a rain barrel that is 2
metres high, and has a diameter
of 1.2 metres. How much water
will it hold?”
*All too often, it is assumed that
symbolic representation is the
only way to communicate
mathematically. The more
flexible students are in using a
variety of representations to
explain and work with the
mathematics being learned, the
deeper students’ understanding
becomes.
*
*It is estimated that a high school
student’s working vocabulary weighs
in around 40,000 words -Stahl and
Nagy, 2006
*Vocabulary is an important factor in
academic success. -Short &
Fitzsimmmons, 2007
*
*Means teaching the origins of words, the
meaning of prefixes and suffixes
*Ex: Poly = “many”.
Polygon, polynomial, polydactyly, polyester, etc.
*Saves time, because learners aren’t just
memorizing words, they are understanding how
words work
*Helps students make connections to prior
knowledge and across curriculum and subjects
Effective Classroom Strategies 20
*
Effective Classroom Strategies 21
*Effect Size is a unit of measure used with meta-
analysis that expresses the increase or decrease in
student achievement
*Cohen simplified the range of effect sizes
*Small: 0.20 to 0.49
*Medium: 0.50 to 0.79
*Large: 0.80 and above

  2. Andrea-Coaches refer to the strategic plan when conducting inservices and when planning with and for teachersStrategic goals: 1- Sustainable infrastructure2- People Engagement3- Accountability for All4- Student Learning and Wellbeing4- Equitable OpportunitiesStrategic Priorities:1 - Excel at key processes -Assessment goes hand in hand with strengthening instruction -Improve effective change management – this is why we a re on a journey, and how we implement and manage the change process2 - Achieve student and family outcomes - effective appropriate assessment lends itself to improving student learning outcomes. Assessment practices allow students to be a part of their learning journey - effective assessment practices also strengthen student and parent engagement, students will have a better picture of where they have been, where they are going, and what steps will be along the way.3 – Achieve financial stewardship4 - Enable people capacity

  7. CindyRead1 minute
  8. Andrea“Disciplinary Literacy” does not mean being able to read the suspension policy3 minutesThis model was developed by Shanahan and Shanahan (2008)Basic Literacy – is the initial phase of instruction, students decode words, recognize high frequency words, understand conventions of print and attend to meaningIntermediate Literacy – this is when student beginning to move from primary into upper elementary grades, students improve on their reading fluency, begin to expand their vocabularies, and are encountering more increasingly difficult texts. Comprehension strategies become increasingly important, and students are faced with a variety of text structuresDiscipline Literacy – these students are in middle school and high school, they need to handle a curriculum that features various texts and the influence from distinct academic disciplines arises, each discipline has different demands. Students now are expected to become many different kinds of readers and writers.Discipline literacy is contextualized, students need instruction that guides them in reading through discipline lenses – interacting with fiction is different than interacting with nonfiction Disciplinary Literacy is the mot neglected instruction (studies reveal), this discipline literacy is seen as “orphaned responsibility”.
  9. Cindy LIST – Think-Pair -Share5 minutesHandout – Literacy in Sk Curriculum – snipits from various curriculumsGoal: Participants are to review curriculum snipits on Literacies and identify commonalities regarding what each says.Highlight and discussGroup feedbackWhat emerging themes were noticed?
  10. Andrea - slides 7-8-9 all one activity LIST – Graphic Organizer10-15 minutesNeed to be able to understand textNeed to understand resources for informationneed to be able to understand questionssummarizing and note takingcommunicating ideas to others, communicating learning to me, and all the aims of the curr documents/ ie, full participants, lifelong learners, self reflection etcHow is literacy used? Where is it used? Answering questions, reading text, interpreting questions, communicating ideas, etc. Specific activities are presentations, exams, journals, text reading, media reading, exam writing, posters, etc.
  11. Andrea LIST – Model of Graphic OrganizerTime – 5 minDoes not have to be a concept map, could be any format.Be specific, give examples of what this is/ what it looks like in your subject.
  12. Cindy LIST – Differentiated Jigsaw – choice in what to read, all on same topic25 total – 15 and 1010 to read then 10 to share minutes (20 max)- INCLUDING sharingChoose an article. Read (highlight or write, etc)Find key point
  13. Andrea2 minutesScaffolded instruction, or the gradual release model, is broadly recognized as asuccessful approach for moving classroom instruction from teacher-centered, wholegroupdelivery to student-centered collaboration and independent practice.Sometimes referred to as “I do it, we do it, you do it,” this model proposes a plan ofinstruction that includes demonstration, prompt, and practice.
  14. Cindy LIST – Graffiti/Carousel20 minExplain this activity. Each group starts at a different station. Read the Comprehension Strategy at the station. Record your thoughts and ideas, these could be : Benefit, usefulness, potential use, strengths, disciplines (what subject), where and when you could use, assess or not assess, formative or summative, etc.
  15. Cindy LIST – Think Aloud1 minuteAndreaGive Handout, “Think Aloud”Purpose – so students can SEE and HEAR the metacognitive aspects. What does the teacher think while they read. This modelling of thought is the first step in the gradual release of responsibility – it is the “I Do” in I Do – We Do – You Do2 minute
  16. Cindy1 minConcretelyPictoriallySymbolically …mathematical literacy is more than reading written English langue.
  17. Cindy LIST – Word Wall1 minThe more students understand the terms used within a passage, the easier it is for them to understand information they read or hear about the topic (Marzano & Pickering, 2005). It has been found that students must have a working knowledge of 95% of the vocabulary in a passage in order to comprehend it (Lyon, 2009). Several evidence-based instructional strategies are available to frontload targeted vocabulary to promote greater comprehension, as outlined below.Word Walls - What are Word Walls?A word wall is an organized collection of words prominently displayed in a classroom. Word walls provide easy access to words students need. The specific organization of the word wall will match the teacher's purpose: sight words organized by alphabet letter, unit-specific words, new vocabulary words, for example. The most helpful word walls grow and change throughout the year and are used as a learning reference.
  18. Cindy1 minResearch shows that time spend on vocabulary makes a positive impact on student achievement.
  19. Cindy1 minIf we teach 1 word (affix, base)– we learn anywhere from 10 – 20 new words.
