Teacher

📝 Summary (English)

Learning Objectives

During Literacy Wednesdays, students are expected to focus on improving their reading skills, critical thinking, and vocabulary. The goal is to enhance their ability to read, write, speak, and listen effectively, making sense of the world and communicating clearly.

Key Concepts

Literacy: The ability to read and write (from image, showing a dictionary definition). More broadly, literacy is defined as the capacity to communicate effectively and make sense of the world, to interpret, react, articulate, and express thoughts, and to confidently engage with language to acquire, construct, and communicate meaning in all aspects of daily living (from image, showing three educational quotes).

Teaching Notes

Literacy Wednesday is dedicated time for personalized literacy learning and independent reading. Students should work on one or more of the following options:

  • Personalized Literacy Learning: Access i-Ready (from image, showing the i-Ready logo) via BSD405.org > Student Portal > Clever. This platform includes features like "MY PATH" (from image, showing "MY PATH Level 21") and topic selection (from image, showing "Select Topic" with options like "Artistic Expressions").
  • Independent Reading: Utilize resources such as KCLS, Destiny, Chinook Library, Common Lit, Newsela, SoraApp, or a novel of choice (from image, showing a graphic representing reading with a book and tablet, and another image depicting stylized figures interacting with books).

Specific instructions for accessing these resources are available on the OneNote page dated 09.17.25.

Literacy Wednesday is:

  • An opportunity to focus on improving reading skills.
  • An opportunity to focus on improving critical thinking.
  • An opportunity to focus on improving vocabulary.

Literacy Wednesday is NOT:

  • A chance to chat with friends.
  • An opportunity to get caught up on other homework.
  • A time to play coolmathgames (this link leads to the "Rick Astley - Never Gonna Give You Up" music video).

Sample Schedules (40 minutes): Students should choose a schedule and stay productive.

  • i-Ready + Independent Reading: i-Ready for 25 minutes, Independent Reading for 15 minutes (15+ minutes/day reading recommended).
  • i-Ready ONLY: i-Ready for 40 minutes (45 minutes/week i-Ready recommended).
  • Independent Reading ONLY: Independent Reading for 40 minutes (15+ minutes/day reading recommended).

Check for Understanding

Teacher Reference Answer: Literacy Wednesday is a dedicated 40-minute block for students to enhance their reading skills, critical thinking, and vocabulary through focused activities. Students can choose between personalized learning on i-Ready, independent reading using provided resources or a personal novel, or a combination of both. It is crucial that this time is used productively for literacy development and not for socializing, catching up on other homework, or playing games. Students should adhere to the recommended time allocations for each activity to maximize their learning.

🇨🇳 摘要 (Chinese)

学习目标

在读写能力周三，学生们应专注于提高他们的阅读技能、批判性思维和词汇量。目标是增强他们有效阅读、写作、口语和听力的能力，理解世界并清晰沟通。

核心概念

读写能力： 阅读和写作的能力（来自图片，显示字典定义）。更广泛地说，读写能力被定义为有效沟通和理解世界的能力，能够解释、回应、清晰表达和表达思想，并自信地运用语言在日常生活的各个方面获取、构建和传达意义（来自图片，显示三条教育引语）。

教学笔记

读写能力周三是专门用于个性化读写学习和独立阅读的时间。学生应选择以下一个或多个选项进行学习：

  • 个性化读写学习： 通过 BSD405.org > 学生门户 (Student Portal) > Clever 访问 i-Ready（来自图片，显示 i-Ready 标志）。该平台包括“我的路径 (MY PATH)”等功能（来自图片，显示“MY PATH Level 21”）和主题选择（来自图片，显示“选择主题 (Select Topic)”以及“艺术表达 (Artistic Expressions)”等选项）。
  • 独立阅读： 利用 KCLS、Destiny、Chinook Library、Common Lit、Newsela、SoraApp 或自选小说等资源（来自图片，显示代表阅读的图形，包含一本书和一台平板电脑，以及另一张描绘人物与书籍互动的风格化图片）。

访问这些资源的具体说明可在日期为 09.17.25 的 OneNote 页面上找到。

读写能力周三是：

  • 一个专注于提高阅读技能的机会。
  • 一个专注于提高批判性思维的机会。
  • 一个专注于提高词汇量的机会。

读写能力周三不是：

  • 与朋友聊天的机会。
  • 一个赶其他作业的机会。
  • 一个玩 coolmathgames 的时间（此链接指向“Rick Astley - Never Gonna Give You Up”音乐视频）。

示例时间表（40 分钟）： 学生应选择一个时间表并保持高效。

  • i-Ready + 独立阅读： i-Ready 25 分钟，独立阅读 15 分钟（建议每天阅读 15 分钟以上）。
  • 仅 i-Ready： i-Ready 40 分钟（建议每周 i-Ready 45 分钟）。
  • 仅独立阅读： 独立阅读 40 分钟（建议每天阅读 15 分钟以上）。

理解检查

教师参考答案： 读写能力周三是一个专门的 40 分钟时段，学生通过专注的活动来提高他们的阅读技能、批判性思维和词汇量。学生可以选择在 i-Ready 上进行个性化学习，使用提供的资源或个人小说进行独立阅读，或两者结合。至关重要的是，这段时间要有效地用于读写能力发展，而不是用于社交、赶其他作业或玩游戏。学生应遵守每项活动的建议时间分配，以最大限度地提高学习效果。
