jrp+Long+Range+Literacy+Plan

My goal for this Long Range Literacy Plan was to create a place where anyone could go and find easy to use tools for teaching literacy right along side teaching content without feeling like you are teaching literacy. I have created this plan based upon the strategies found in //Building reading comprehension habits in grades 6-12: A toolkit of classroom activities//. 2nd ed. There are six comprehension habits in this book and each has its own set of mini-lessons that can be adapted to teach literacy in different content areas. I have created my plan based on my goal of teaching life science, so you may have to choose other strategies that fit your content area better. There is also a table for assessment that goes along with each habit. This is a general set of assessments that can be graded on a scale of 1 - 4 and recorded and revisited to see how each student is progressing with the habits. I believe this will be an ongoing project that I hope to add to as I gain more experience in the classroom, of which I have absolutely none at this point, besides my classes at Saint Mary's. I hope you find this plan useful!
