The new Common Core standards raise reading and writing expectations for students at every grade level and call for integrating literacy skills into every content area. In this workshop, participants will
focus on
• Understanding the literacy skills defined by the common core standards and how they will affect
teaching and learning in all content areas
• Eight major reading strategies that build comprehension
• How reading and writing skills can be developed in different content areas
• Connecting reading and writing in planning instruction
• Tips for assessing student writing
• Tools for helping students process content area text
• Planning instruction that integrates reading and writing activities in order to increase understanding
of the content being taught.
