We watched Essential Pieces video that Ms. McKenzie created that was to be presented at the board meeting this evening.
We had a Reading Training session presented by Juliet Brown on the Balanced Literacy model.
Balanced Literacy framework handouts are available on Learning Village. Search Learning Village for “balanced literacy” & it will bring up BL resources for each grade level. Click on one of the grade levels and look for X Grade Balanced Literacy Model.
How are you integrating literacy into your lessons? Leave a comment with what you are doing with each grade levels.
Ms. Brown presented a PowerPoint with highlights of the Balanced Literacy model.
Emphasis on using language that connects the words “infer,” “inference,” “draw conclusions,” “summarize” in daily interaction with our students.
Ms. Brown encourages us to each create a word wall for our particular area.
