• I can articulate the goals and purpose of the content leadership networks.
• I can explain the structure and goals of the Literacy Design Collaborative (LDC) and its relationship to implementing the KCAS.
• I can create an LDC teaching task for argumentation that integrates the ELA strands.
• I can articulate the difference between persuasion, opinion, and argument.
• I can set personal goals and make an action plan to advance the vision of 21st century learning.

What’s Ahead for Year 2?
• Plan rigorous and congruent learning experiences for instruction
• Select evidence-based strategies and resources to enhance instruction and support CHETL
• Design high-quality formative and summative assessments and utilize resulting data effectively to improve teaching and learning
• Work collaboratively within and across networks to populate CIITS
• Participate in grade level appropriate book studies that will further an in-depth study of current and best practices in literacy

What is theLiteracy Design Collaborative(LDC)
A framework for implementing the standards. LDC is a structure to allow teachers and students deeper engagement with the standards leading to highly effective teaching and learning.
Just as CASL was the touchstone text for Assessment Literacy, so is LDC the touchstone for Highly Effective Teaching and Learning.

Student Assignments
Engaging and demanding learning through:
Teaching tasks with prompts and scoring rubrics
Instructional modules, supporting the tasks with plans for needed skills, effective instructions, and sample student work

Teacher ToolsTools to implement that approach:
Templates educators can fill in to create the tasks and teaching plans
Models educators can consider and revise
Sample work from other teachers and their students to use as models for new designs

The LDC framework fits with a unit.

Just those that make sense.

Tools …“Hammers do not build, needles do not sew, and LDC resources do not generate richer levels of student learning on their own. In the hands of skilled practitioners, though, good tools can speed the work, whether the craft in question is building, quilting, or equipping the next generation with the literacy skills they need for adult success.” LDC design team,

Why Tasks?“What determines what students know and are able to do is not what the curriculum says they are supposed to do, or even what the teacher thinks he or she is asking students to do. What predicts performance is what students are actually doing.”

Template TasksLDC template tasks are “shells” of assignments that ask students to read, write, and think about important academic content in science, social studies, English, or another subject.
Teachers fill in those shells, deciding the texts students will read, the writing students will produce, and the content students will engage.

Template TasksTemplate tasks come with rubrics for scoring students’ work and specifications of the Common Core State Standards the resulting tasks will address.
Some template tasks provide optional additions to the basic assignment, allowing teachers an additional way to vary the level of work students will create. (L2, L3)

From Templates Task to Teaching Task
Teachers fill in the template task to create a teaching task, meaning a major student assignment to be completed over two to four weeks.
The content can be science, history, language arts, or another subject.

Teaching TasksTeachers fill in the prompt, including:
The content of the task
Texts to read
Text students will write, including suggestion of or choice of audience
Whether to use the Level 2 and Level 3 options to make the task more demanding

Teaching TasksTeachers also decide on:What background information about the teaching task should be shared with studentsWhich state or local standards the teaching task will addressWhether and how to use an extension activity with the teaching task

The main sections are argumentation, information/explanation, and narrative (matching Common Core’s three kinds of writing) The template tasks start either with an essential question or with “after researching)They include templates for definition, description, procedural-sequential writing, synthesis, analysis, comparison, evaluation, problem-solution, and cause-effect

Modules are for SharingCompleted LDC modules can be shared from teacher to teacher, school to school, and state to state.
Having a common, clear design approach will allow teachers to search, study, use, and revise one another’s teaching ideas.

Template Tasks
Template Tasks are fill-in-the-blank “shells” built off the Common Core.
To turn a template task into a teaching task, teachers fill in the texts to be read, writing to be produced, and content to be addressed.

Task 2 First, At the Basic Level
With argumentation, students may engage more quickly
With an essential question task, teachers do not have to manage a student research process: they simply select the texts
Without L2 and L3, the task will be a good starting point for teachers and students

In Choosing Texts to Read, ConsiderLiterature: novels, stories, poems, plays Informational texts: Newspaper articles, journal articles, primary source documents
Opinion pieces: editorials, speeches, essays on an issue
Reference works: encyclopedias, almanacs, manuals, how-to books

Addresses content essential to the discipline, inviting students to engage deeply in thinking and literacy practices around that issue.
Makes effective use of the template task’s writing mode (argumentation, information/explanation, or narrative).
Selects reading texts that use and develop academic understanding and vocabulary.

A Great LDC Teaching Task

Let’s See How a Template Works
To get a starting sense of how the templates work, please:
Choose a debatable or arguable issue or a text you enjoy teaching .
Write a question about the arguable topic.
Individually, fill in the Task 2 template in your notebook to make a strong assignment on that subject

– “The tools do not do the work. Hammers do not build, needles do not sew, and LDC resources do not generate richer levels of student learning on their own. In the hands of skilled practitioners, though, good tools can speed the work, whether the craft in question in building, quilting, or equipping the next generation with the literacy skills they need for adult success.”
