The document outlines various reading strategies including prediction, connection, vocabulary, summarization, questioning, inference, and visualization. Prediction involves guessing what will happen next based on context clues. Connection involves relating the text to other texts, personal experiences, or events in the real world. Vocabulary involves defining unknown words by considering context and checking a dictionary. Summarization, questioning, inference, and visualization involve actively engaging with and reflecting on the content of a text.
Grow Through It: Fostering Resilience & Empathy Through StorySusan Dee
Connecting couldn’t be more important than during the middle grade years when kids are deciding who they want to be; when they are discovering themselves as a unique person. A great book can be an important impetus in that formulation. Three authors of literature for children and young adults and two classroom teachers have come together to share ideas and strategies professionals can use with students to build resilience and empathy through the use of children’s literature.

ESAP Symposium Reading workshop August 15 2015Stephen j Hall
Reading and tackling the role of responses: More than comprehension questions
Classroom learning is often driven by questions or tasks given and the answer or product required. This is especially noticeable in learning cultures in which the teacher defines the ‘how’ of learning by the one correct answer sought or a closely defined outcome. With an examination dominant system driven by competitive school league tables, correctness may begin to dominate creativity and critical thinking. Yet this can be contested if facilitators of learning use varied responses to reading rather than rely on the one and only correct task type or response.
This workshop will provide experience in varied task types which are responses to written text. Just two reading texts will be used to suggest a range of responses which could stimulate vocabulary understanding and use, while developing creativity in teaching and learning

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
