Three Literacy Frameworks • Func>onal – “reflected in a curriculum that teaches students the skills deemed necessary to successfully par>cipate in school and society”
• Cultural – “teaching of morals and values, with a curriculum that includes the classics or ‘Great Books’”
• Progressive – “engage in the process of learning to read and write based on themes and topics of interest to students, with vocabulary related to their lives”

“Texts are designed using the range of historically available choices among different modes of meaning”

An Integrative Approach • For Reading • Whole-‐class text • Literature circles • SSR (sustained silent, self-‐selected reading)
• For Wri>ng • Examining mentor texts • Inquiry-‐based research • Wri>ng workshop
• For Listening and Speaking • Mul>media composi>on • Project and porlolio-‐based assessment

Rethinking Of Mice And Men • Before Reading • Develop inquiry ques>ons • Model “think alouds” for both content and comprehension
• During Reading • Mini-‐lessons in literary devices and analysis • Text pairing • Literature circles
• Amer Reading • Dynamic readings • Performa>ve assessments • Mul>modal composi>ons

Recommendations • For Reading and Literature • Integrate content area literacy strategies and young adult literature
• For Wri>ng and Composi>on • Develop skills in informa>onal and argumenta>ve wri>ng, not just responses to literature
• Invite mul>media composi>on • For Teaching and Learning • Create inquiry-‐driven curriculum and instruc>on
