Volcano surfing is risky for several reasons. The steep slopes of the volcano make the tough climb to the top dangerous. Once at the top, surfers are exposed to billowing ash and crater eruptions, which can burn and injure them. The degree and angle of the slopes combined with ash and lava flows create hazardous conditions for those surfing down the volcano.

potentially use as summative information.

Literacy includes making connections, analyzing critically,
comprehending, creating, and communicating.

15. Writers’ Workshop – Student Diversity 3rd ed
• The foundation of your literacy programming
• Establish this first!!!!
• K/1 – begin with interactive writing, writing/drawing/creating
text in front of your learners, representing thinking with drawing,
adding letters and sounds
• 2-7 – write in front of your students, at least 2 whole class writing
in response to experiences, read alouds, classroom inquiries each
week
16. •When students write, they generate deeper
thinking in any content area.
• Kelly Gallagher “The Writing Journey” EL, Feb 17
17. • Improvement in writing is grounded in
practice, in getting words on the page – lots
of them. There are no shortcuts.
• Gallagher & Kittle, EL, April 18
18. • Focus on ideas
• Do not focus on transcription – punctuation,
capitalization, spacing, spelling, handwriting, high-
frequency words
• “…compositional skills develop, and are mastered,
long before transcription skills” (Flower & Hayes,
1981; Ray & Glover,2008; Roberts & Wibens,
2010)
