2. Review
Reminder to join the Edmodo group and review of the minutes from the last meeting.
3. Invitation
Eric invited members to join his 2B class on various dates in November to see his own use
of literacy in the classroom with his Cultitertulia experience for students.
4. Activity
Members were asked to complete a Think, Pair, Share activity with the information from
the Learning Walks they have completed since the last meeting. Groups discussed
positive use of literacy strategies that are currently being implemented so as to identify
strengths and weaknesses for our building.
5. Share Out
Groups shared their discussions with the entire group, and members commented on the
positive activities that teachers are using. Also, the group began to identify teachers who
have a strong command of literacy strategies.
6. Goal Setting
Eric has spoken with Dr. Askew to request time during faculty meetings to share effective
literacy strategies with the faculty as a whole. Teachers would be from various
departments and would present for less than 10 minutes, probably two per faculty
meeting. Members are asked to return to the next meeting prepared to identify a pocket
of excellence within their department. Members will need to give the name of the
teacher and will need to ensure that the teacher is willing to present at a faculty meeting.
There was discussion regarding the applicability of a discipline specific strategy being
shared universally. Expert presenters are encouraged to present strategies that can be
more universally applied. Also, we discussed follow up at department meetings. Once an
expert has presented at the faculty meeting, lit leadership team members can follow up
during department meetings to give examples of use for the strategy with their own
discipline.
