During Literacy Wednesdays, students will focus on improving their reading skills, critical thinking, and vocabulary. They will engage with language to acquire, construct, and communicate meaning effectively, interpreting and expressing their thoughts.
Literacy: The ability to read and write (from image), to communicate effectively and make sense of the world (from image), to interpret, react, articulate, and express thoughts (from image), and the capacity, confidence, and willingness to engage with language in all aspects of daily living (from image).
Personalized Literacy Learning: Utilizing digital tools like i-Ready (from image) to work on individual learning paths (from image) and select specific topics (from image) to enhance reading comprehension and skills.
Independent Reading: Engaging with various texts from library resources or personal choices to foster a love for reading and improve literacy skills (from image).
This page outlines the structure and options for "Literacy Wednesday," a dedicated 40-minute block for students to enhance their literacy skills. Students are directed to choose between Personalized Literacy Learning (using i-Ready) or Independent Reading, or a combination of both. Access instructions for digital resources like i-Ready, KCLS, Destiny, Common Lit, Newsela, and SoraApp are referenced on a separate OneNote page (09.17.25).
Literacy Wednesday is explicitly defined as an opportunity to improve reading skills, critical thinking, and vocabulary. It is NOT a time for chatting, catching up on other homework, or playing games. The page includes a humorous link to a Rick Astley video (from video: Rick Astley - Never Gonna Give You Up (Official Video) (4K Remaster)) under the "Literacy Wednesday is NOT..." section, reinforcing the focus on academic engagement.
Sample schedules are provided for the 40-minute session:
Students are encouraged to stay productive within their chosen schedule.
