I teach 2nd and reading changes from learning to read to reading to learn. Such an important distinction #NoVAedChat

A5 All Ts don't have to worry about supporting ELA class. They each have their own literacy vital to their own discipline. #NoVAedchat

techinteaching - Moderator Mar 29 @ 8:47 PM EDT

A5- Make #reading & #literacy priorities. Bring in books & passages when you can. There are opps for all content areas. #NoVAedChat

PHES_ITC Mar 29 @ 8:47 PM EDT

A5: Incorporate read-alouds, use some non-textbook nonfiction text, scaffold literacy skills by pointing out text features, etc. #NovaEdChat

smarterteacher Mar 29 @ 8:48 PM EDT

Thank You! Our Genetics and Health teachers have also adopted the assignment as well. It could be used across all curricula. #NOVAedchat

A4 I'm thinking a lot about student created guides on digital literacy. Increased buy in is a powerful thing! #NoVAedchat

Ted_Cooper54 Mar 29 @ 8:48 PM EDT

#novaedchat Yes! I was just about to type content specific read alouds / interactive readings.

I agree! If you have students reading, writing, thinking etc.in class you are supporting kids in all subjects. #NoVAedChat

How important is literacy in all content areas? https://t.co/cvfLO8WYgZ #NoVAedChat

I love this - i think we do a lot more of this identifying overlap in ES than secondary. i can see big benefits to this! #NoVAedchat

A5 Their first step is seeing it as a skill that supports everything students need to learn in their class, not something extra #NoVAedChat

MrHeronMU Mar 29 @ 8:49 PM EDT

Teaching rdg is hard.Teaching how to teach reading is REALLY hard. Have to do, reflect, do again. #NovaEdChat

If you aren't teaching literacy, you aren't teaching. There's no point without reading, writing, discussing, thinking. #NoVAedChat

SusZanti5 Mar 29 @ 8:49 PM EDT

A5: Begin by knowing their learners-building relationships-giving choices-supporting effort celebrating aquisition of all forms #NoVAedchat

#novaedchat A5 as a music T I had a PD one how to teach kids to make connections during read aloud. It was powerful and easy to implement

reflection is key! Being open and vulnerable supports learning and growth #NoVAedchat

I think the literacy training drops off after ES. Secondary Ts need this kind of PD too. #NoVAedChat
