Learning Inten5ons:
• I have a beJer understanding of the big pieces of intermediate literacy and can recognize them in classrooms.

Big Ideas – Teaching counts!
• Our instruc5onal choices impact significantly on student learning
• We teach responsively
– All kids can learn and we know enough collectively to teach all kids! • An unwavering belief that everyone has the right to be included socially, emo5onally, and intellectually
![Page 5: Quesnel Admin - Intermediate Literacy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042907/58e7d4d51a28ab3a578b4c79/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
McKinsey Report, 2007 • The top-‐performing school systems recognize that the only way to improve outcomes is to improve instruc5on: learning occurs when students and teachers interact, and thus to improve learning implies improving the quality of that interac5on.
![Page 6: Quesnel Admin - Intermediate Literacy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042907/58e7d4d51a28ab3a578b4c79/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
How the world’s most improved school systems keep getting better
–McKinsey, 2010 Three changes collabora5ve prac5ce brought about: 1. Teachers moved from being private emperors to
making their prac5ce public and the en5re teaching popula5on sharing responsibility for student learning.
2. Focus shiQed from what teachers teach to what students learn.
3. Systems developed a model of ‘good instruc5on’ and teachers became custodians of the model. (p. 79-‐81)

• How do we help every student to become a beJer reader?

“Know thy impact.” Visible Learning for Teachers
Maximizing Impact on Learning John Haae, 2012
Is what you are doing, getting you what you want?
![Page 16: Quesnel Admin - Intermediate Literacy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042907/58e7d4d51a28ab3a578b4c79/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
We CAN teach all our kids to read.
• Struggling readers need to read MORE than non-‐struggling readers to close the gap.
• Struggling readers need to form a mental model of what readers do when reading.
• Struggling readers need to read for meaning and joy ☺
• Struggling readers do NOT need worksheets, scripted programs, or more skills prac5ce.
![Page 17: Quesnel Admin - Intermediate Literacy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042907/58e7d4d51a28ab3a578b4c79/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Language Counts! …our language choices have serious consequences for children’s learning and for who they become as individuals and as a community.
…the language we choose in our teaching changes the worlds children inhabit now and those they will build in the future. -‐Peter H. Johnston, 2012
![Page 18: Quesnel Admin - Intermediate Literacy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042907/58e7d4d51a28ab3a578b4c79/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
• My class is a 3-‐4 reading level to a 32. • This is my low group.
• I have 14 IEPs in my class.
• I have a behavior class. • How many special needs do you have?
• I’ve a split class.
![Page 19: Quesnel Admin - Intermediate Literacy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042907/58e7d4d51a28ab3a578b4c79/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Language Counts! • Thank you • What are you reading that is interes5ng to you?
• I think we have come off course. What can we do to get back on course?
• We only get to write for 4 minutes! • I don’t think I was clear enough with my instruc5ons. Can we stop for a moment and have you help me be clearer?
![Page 20: Quesnel Admin - Intermediate Literacy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042907/58e7d4d51a28ab3a578b4c79/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Leadership Roles
-‐keeping the vision alive
-‐providing structures and supports to enable others to provide rich learning environments
-‐maintaining a strengths-‐based perspec5ve
-‐learning together about evidence-‐based reading prac5ces
-‐encouraging collabora5on
![Page 21: Quesnel Admin - Intermediate Literacy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042907/58e7d4d51a28ab3a578b4c79/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Structures and Supports • Class reviews • Collabora5on 5me
• A focus on co-‐teaching • Walking the talk
-‐What’s working?
-‐What do we need to polish?
![Page 22: Quesnel Admin - Intermediate Literacy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042907/58e7d4d51a28ab3a578b4c79/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Why a class review?
![Page 23: Quesnel Admin - Intermediate Literacy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042907/58e7d4d51a28ab3a578b4c79/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Goal:
to support students in working effec5vely in the classroom environment
![Page 24: Quesnel Admin - Intermediate Literacy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042907/58e7d4d51a28ab3a578b4c79/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Goal:
to work together to beJer meet the needs of all students
![Page 25: Quesnel Admin - Intermediate Literacy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042907/58e7d4d51a28ab3a578b4c79/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Ra5onale:
By sharing our collec5ve exper5se about teaching and learning we can beJer implement plans of ac5on, and thus we can beJer meet the needs of all students.
![Page 26: Quesnel Admin - Intermediate Literacy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042907/58e7d4d51a28ab3a578b4c79/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
A Key Belief
Interven5on is focused on classroom support. Classroom-‐based interven5on does NOT mean that all specialists have to be in the classroom all the 5me. Instead, the RESULTS of their work have to show up in the classroom.
![Page 27: Quesnel Admin - Intermediate Literacy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042907/58e7d4d51a28ab3a578b4c79/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
The Class Review Process
• Learning in Safe Schools, 2nd ed – Brownlie and King
![Page 28: Quesnel Admin - Intermediate Literacy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042907/58e7d4d51a28ab3a578b4c79/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
• Meet as a school-‐based team, with the administrator
• Each classroom teacher (CT) joins the team for 45 minutes to speak of her class
• TOC’s provide coverage for CTs • Follow the order of strengths, needs, goals, individuals
• The CT does not do the recording or the chairing
![Page 29: Quesnel Admin - Intermediate Literacy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042907/58e7d4d51a28ab3a578b4c79/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
The Class Review
What are the strengths of the class?
What are your concerns about the class as a whole?
What are your main goals for the class this year?
What are the individual needs in your class?
![Page 30: Quesnel Admin - Intermediate Literacy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042907/58e7d4d51a28ab3a578b4c79/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)

Frameworks for Learning
It’s All about Thinking (English, Humanities, Social Studies) – Brownlie & Schnellert, 2009
It’s All about Thinking (Math, Science)– Brownlie, Fullerton, Schnellert, 2011
![Page 32: Quesnel Admin - Intermediate Literacy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042907/58e7d4d51a28ab3a578b4c79/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Universal Design for Learning Mul5ple means: -‐to tap into background knowledge, to ac5vate prior knowledge, to increase engagement and mo5va5on
-‐to acquire the informa5on and knowledge to process new ideas and informa5on
-‐to express what they know.
Rose & Meyer, 2002
![Page 33: Quesnel Admin - Intermediate Literacy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042907/58e7d4d51a28ab3a578b4c79/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Backwards Design • What important ideas and enduring understandings do you want the students to know?
• What thinking strategies will students need to demonstrate these understandings?
McTighe & Wiggins, 2001
![Page 34: Quesnel Admin - Intermediate Literacy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042907/58e7d4d51a28ab3a578b4c79/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Reading Theory and Practice���-the mental model

Features of High-Engagement Learning Environments
• available supply of appropriately difficult texts • op5ons that allow students more control over the texts to be read and the work to be accomplished
• the collabora5ve nature of much of the work • the opportunity to discuss what was read and wriJen
• the meaningfulness of the ac5vi5es
• Allington & Johnston, 2002; Presley, 2002; Wigfield, 1997; Almasi & McKeown, 1996; Turner, 1995
