3. Getting To Know The
Learners
Cognitive and Non-cognitive Factors
4. Assessment should be done to learn
about affective areas such as
students’ motivation, beliefs,
attitudes, identities and interests.
Assessment should be done to learn
about students’ development across
the five pillars.
Do we really know our LEARNERS?
6. In a literate environment, texts used
should cross the literary continuum
from literary to semiotic and narrative
to informational.
Teachers should balance their use of
different kinds of texts as well ensure
that texts used are at the appropriate
difficultly level for the intended
students.
An important goal when selecting text
is helping our students acquire skills
while simultaneously acquiring
knowledge. Balancing the types of
texts used helps accomplish this goal.
Have we thoughtfully considered our TEXTS?
8. Most teachers spend a great deal of
time on this perspective. Here is
where skills are taught and
practiced.
Most importantly, this perspective
focuses on teaching to become
independent and strategic readers
and thinkers. Students should not
only be metacognitive of strategies
being used in the classroom, they
must also be able to use those
strategies independently.
The Interactive Perspective
9. In a literate environment, students are
encouraged to talk about text they read.
The response perspective provides an
opportunity for students to read and
respond to texts in personal ways.
Students should be allowed to talk about
parts of texts they find interesting and
important.
The Response & Critical Perspectives
The literate environments also allows
time for students to think critically about
texts read. The critical perspective
allows students to reflect on themes
present, the author’s purpose for writing
as well as the point of view of the
characters in the text.
