Integrating Writing into the Content Areas
Non-Credit
This class examines strategies for integrating reading and writing across the content areas. We will explore how to help grade 6-12 students develop their identities as writers and readers as they learn how to negotiate texts, expand their vocabulary, and use writing as a tool for understanding and expressing who they are. Together, we will learn a variety of approaches for supporting diverse learners and helping each student in our classroom develop a rich literacy life.
Goals & Learning Outcomes:
- Explore and develop our own writing identity.
- Read like writers.
- Use writing as a tool for understanding and sharing new knowledge.
- Create a Writing Workshop.
- Create diverse genres to invite deep learning, creativity, and choice.
- Assess and e-VALUE-ate, or find value, in our writing and the writing of others.
- Apply these skills to teaching students how to write to learn
