“ The learner not only has item banks of
knowledge needed to read more difficult texts
but also has constructed the power source that
will drive subsequent learning, what I call “a self-
extending system.”……In my theory of what
happens(literacy processing theory), there are
two powerful self-extending systems….

Talk at your table about what you learnt from
these 2 activities:
What strategic activities were you engaged in?

Did you notice:
You did not make a random response-
you had a network of strategic
activities to draw on

“It assumes that in order to read
with understanding we call up and
use a repertoire of strategies acting
upon stores of knowledge to extract
messages from print.”

What is not teaching for strategic
activity?

A child comes to an unknown word and
stops. The teacher says “break it”.
Is this teaching for strategic activity?
Is there something we can do as teachers
that might be more facilitative? Why
![Page 20: Teaching for Strategic Activity: The Power of Reading …readingrecovery.org/images/pdfs/Conferences/TLI14/duncan.pdf · Teaching for Strategic Activity: The Power of Reading Recovery.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051406/5ab833c67f8b9ab62f8c5a64/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

helpful?

• “…a child may have items of knowledge about letters and sound and words but be unable to relate one to the other, to employ one (say, letters) to check on the other (say, words), or to get the messages in print. He is unable to use his knowledge in the service of getting to the messages. He must learn how to check on his own learning… and how to orchestrate different ways of responding to complete a successful message getting process.”

In strategic teaching, a high degree of flexible
decision making is required as the teacher
observes and interacts with a child. The
teacher’s responses, prompts, reinforcing,
statements, and actions are critical.
Partners in learning, p. 136.
![Page 23: Teaching for Strategic Activity: The Power of Reading …readingrecovery.org/images/pdfs/Conferences/TLI14/duncan.pdf · Teaching for Strategic Activity: The Power of Reading Recovery.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051406/5ab833c67f8b9ab62f8c5a64/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
The teacher must be able to design a superbly sequenced programme
determined by the child's performance, and to make highly
skilled decisions moment by moment during the lesson.
![Page 24: Teaching for Strategic Activity: The Power of Reading …readingrecovery.org/images/pdfs/Conferences/TLI14/duncan.pdf · Teaching for Strategic Activity: The Power of Reading Recovery.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051406/5ab833c67f8b9ab62f8c5a64/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
“..teachers cannot teach or demonstrate strategies; they can infer them from
behaviours they record, and they can encourage learners to be strategic by the
ways in which they teach.”
Change Over Time, p 128
![Page 25: Teaching for Strategic Activity: The Power of Reading …readingrecovery.org/images/pdfs/Conferences/TLI14/duncan.pdf · Teaching for Strategic Activity: The Power of Reading Recovery.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051406/5ab833c67f8b9ab62f8c5a64/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
“The teacher is more concerned to reinforce how the child
worked to get the response than whether the child arrived at the
precise correct response.”
![Page 26: Teaching for Strategic Activity: The Power of Reading …readingrecovery.org/images/pdfs/Conferences/TLI14/duncan.pdf · Teaching for Strategic Activity: The Power of Reading Recovery.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051406/5ab833c67f8b9ab62f8c5a64/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
“For learning to occur it is very important to ensure that the difficulty level of the reading material presents challenges from which the
child can learn and not difficulties that disorganize what he already knows.”

“Assistance” offered at too high a level will disrupt child performance and is
not effective teaching. Once independent performance has been
achieved, “assistance” becomes “interference”.

To facilitate the child's attempts to teach himself
think about:
• Task difficulty
• Careful analysis of where the child is
• Responsive teaching
![Page 30: Teaching for Strategic Activity: The Power of Reading …readingrecovery.org/images/pdfs/Conferences/TLI14/duncan.pdf · Teaching for Strategic Activity: The Power of Reading Recovery.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051406/5ab833c67f8b9ab62f8c5a64/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
“There are two ways in which we can
help the child to learn. One of them is
attempting to teach him; the other is by
facilitating his attempts to teach himself.”

Children need opportunities to initiate
attempts at words and teaching interactions
should maximize children’s opportunities to
initiate word-solving and to take control of the
task when they can.” P16, COT

Every interaction in the daily writing segment is a
teaching move- not a memory task, nor a practice
attempt, nor an analysis of sounds but ….. involves
learning to do something, do it better, do it faster,
link it up to something and prepare it for future
independent use. ( Those things include much more
than just attending to sounds in words.) COT

Generating words is not about building word
families. It is producing a word you need to write
by any means at your disposal and getting as
close as you can to the way it is probably written

“In general, teachers with higher student
outcomes were described as more attentive
to problem-solving strategies- both those
initiated by children and those for which they
prompted after observing a potential
opportunity.”
Partners in Learning, p 82

“Teachers contribute to the shifts in processing
which children are able to carry out by,
• Altering the learning opportunities provided
• Prompting to influence the choices made by the
constructive learner
• Altering the interactions between the teacher
and learner.”

Are the children shifting from simple
processing to more complex ways of
working?
Are they initiating more independent
solving on harder texts and getting
better at it day after day?
