Teacher-Managed Instruction
Help your students learn comprehension and analytical skills by letting them peek inside your mind as you make sense of what you’ve read. In this session we’ll explore foundational yet complex reading skills and learn how to unpack the magic of those skills for students in a step-by-step mini-lesson. Participants will design and deliver mini-lessons that are targeted to their standards and students. Learning outcomes: • Unpack the standards to identify key reading skills to teach • Build a scope and sequence of mini-lessons based on texts, standards, and student needs • Describe the components of an effective mini-lesson • Plan and deliver an effective mini-lesson • Design anchor charts that support mini-lessons
Teacher-Managed Instruction Learn how to select complex texts for a variety of learners in a variety of content areas. Then build a common language and set of expectations for closely reading a text. Participants will practice creating text-dependent questions and demonstrating how to read a text with a keen eye for nuance and detail while preparing to cite examples from the text to answer questions. Learning outcomes: • Understand the concept of complex texts and how to determine text complexity • Define a common language and understanding of a close-reading framework • Write text-based questions for grade- and content-appropriate texts • Impart a process for finding text-based answers • Develop a close-reading lesson that includes text-based questions, suggested text- based answers, and opportunities for constructed responses Recommended for: K–5 teachers Time: Three hours Item #s: In Person: 651255 Virtual: 743488 Participants: Up to 30 Close Reading: Text-Dependent Questions and Text-Based Answers for Complex Texts
