Are you looking to improve student achievement in your school or district? Do you want to turn your school or district into a collaborative environment where students are engaged with content across all grade levels?
This session is for principals and/or central office administrators interested in implementing a successful school-wide literacy initiative. Participants will understand the importance of content area reading and writing on achievement and discuss how to easily incorporate argumentative and informational writing across all grade levels and content areas.
Administrators will be actively engaged while presenters model content literacy strategies. Participants will calibrate scoring techniques using standards-based rubrics, score student writing samples, and use student writing as the basis for their Professional Learning Communities (PLC) or Teacher Based Teams (TBT).
