This professional development is designed for teachers who teach a Critical Reading or Strategic Reading Course. However, all teachers are welcome to attend regardless of whether they teach those courses or not. Four different professional development days are offered; however, attendance in all four sessions is not required (but is strongly recommended).
Participants will:
- Explain how visual media and digital media can be used as response to text
- Create rubrics that assess response to text
- Incorporate a variety of response to text strategies into your curriculum
- Integrate response to text into engagement, comprehension, and vocabulary
Audience: Strategic Reading Course teachers and Critical Reading Course teachers. However, all middle school and high school teachers are welcome to attend.
