Week 2 multiple intelligences
This document discusses multiple intelligences and having students complete questionnaires to determine their preferred multiple intelligences. It explains that students will work with others who share their primary intelligence and may choose projects and tasks suited to their strengths. Assessing multiple intelligences helps students understand themselves and how they can approach different types of learning activities and assignments throughout the year.
Strategic Reading Narrated PowerPoint Presentaion
This document discusses strategic reading and identifies three key stages: previewing, active reading, and recalling. It emphasizes the importance of previewing material by reviewing titles, headings, and visuals to activate prior knowledge before reading. While reading, it recommends using strategies like predicting, visualizing, and annotating to integrate new knowledge. After reading, it suggests recalling what was learned by talking, writing, and reflecting on how it relates to existing knowledge. Strategic reading helps improve comprehension by engaging the reader before, during, and after reading.
Classroom expectations (without raising hands)
To be successful in the class, students must bring required materials like a notebook, pencil, and calculator. They should be positive, responsible for their learning, engage in discussions, follow directions, and give maximum effort. Students should not talk over others, be tardy, cheat, or rely solely on memorization. The teacher encourages students to try new things, even if failure is possible, as long as they use common sense. In the class, all students are expected to sit up, listen, ask and answer questions, take notes, and look at the speaker.
Guided reading in the Elementary
The document provides information on implementing small group guided reading instruction and literacy centers at Garth Elementary School to improve reading scores. It outlines steps to be taken which include aligning instruction with state standards, using a guided reading framework and literacy centers for independent practice, and providing professional development for teachers. Assessment data shows a decline in reading scores from 2012 to 2013. The document discusses essential components of guided reading including forming small, flexible groups based on data, selecting appropriate texts, and teaching reading strategies before, during and after reading.
Reading strategies flip book teacher's meeting
This document provides an agenda and resources for a reading strategies workshop. The agenda outlines that the workshop will cover reading strategies and a reading strategies flipbook to support teachers' instructional decisions. It will involve practicing observing reading behaviors. Several handouts are then presented that further explain the content, including defining characteristics of different reading levels from emergent to advanced. Video examples are linked and prompts provided to have teachers analyze readers' stages of development, behaviors, and instructional next steps. The document aims to help teachers determine students' reading levels and needs through observation in order to make informed instructional decisions.
The Inquiry Process at Clairvaux
The document outlines the 8 stages of the inquiry process:
1) Choose an area of interest and develop questions to guide the inquiry.
2) Find information from multiple reliable sources to help answer the questions.
3) Record findings using graphic organizers to organize the information.
4) Reflect on the questions and direction of the inquiry, refining as needed.
5) Present findings using an appropriate format like a report, model, or other display.
6) Evaluate what was learned about the topic and inquiry process, and set goals for future learning.
Guided Reading
Guided reading involves small, flexible groups of students grouped by reading level. During a 15-20 minute lesson, the teacher provides support as students read a common text. A guided reading lesson includes an introduction, reading time with the teacher listening and providing guidance, strategy instruction relating to a teaching point, and a response where students share and confirm their understanding. While the teacher works with one group, other students engage in meaningful literacy activities like revisiting the text or independent reading.
Reading Comprehension: The Mosaic of Thought
I created this slideshow to accompany my presentation on reading comprehension at Notre Dame AmeriCorp's Mid-Year Conference. Lots of tips for metacognition, activators, and summarizers. Based on the book by Ellin Oliver Keene and Susan Zimmermann.

Inquiry Unit Stages (simplified)
The document outlines the 6 stages of the inquiry process used in a classroom over a 6 week period. Each stage focuses on a different aspect of the inquiry: Stage 1 establishes the central idea and students' prior knowledge; Stage 2 develops questions for research; Stage 3 plans how to conduct research; Stage 4 shares what was learned; Stage 5 creates a final presentation; and Stage 6 reflects on the learning process. Assessment is woven throughout the stages to check understanding and skills. The goal is to engage students in an in-depth exploration of a theme through questioning, research, collaboration and reflection.
Questioning examples
Personalized questioning can be used to deepen student thinking, challenge assumptions, and encourage the development of ideas from different perspectives. Effective questioning gives students opportunities to answer, see others' thinking, discuss in pairs or groups, and feel safe while considering questions. It also stimulates more questions and reveals student misconceptions to further learning.
General strategies for asking questions
When planning questions for a lesson, teachers should keep lesson goals in mind, avoid leading questions, and follow yes or no questions with another question. They should plan when questions will be asked, vary the types of questions using keywords like who, what, when, and why, wait for students to think before answering, and encourage students to ask their own questions. Questions should be scattered throughout the class and consider each student's ability, with students providing complete answers and limited group responses to prevent guessing.

Media Savvy Kids Project Presentation RL2011
Children in the US are exposed to millions of advertisements daily through various media like TV, computers, and videos. About 1 in 4 children are negatively affected by advertisements directly targeting them. As kids spend more time in front of screens, sometimes over 4 hours a day, they are exposed to many unhealthy food, smoking, drug, and alcohol ads. While advertising to children under 8 is inappropriate as their minds can't understand selling intent, the advertising industry still spends over $15 billion annually targeting kids. Parents need to limit screen time and promote outdoor play to counter the effects of pervasive child advertising.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
