Thank you everyone for joining us at #ohedchat

3 EL Education’s open access free curriculum; their culminating assignments are beautifully aligned with the standards and the type of assignments we see on state tests. #ohedchat @ELeducation

2 For more micro skills: developing sentences and paragraphs, transitions, word choice and more see the Writing Revolution #ohedchat @natwexler

6.1 Vermont Writing Collaborative home of the Writing for Understanding approach used in EL Educations curriculum is excellent for the type of approach I outlined in number one above. Especially the Painted Essay. #ohedchat

2 Students from less affluent homes who attend less affluent schools have less time on the computer and thus less time to develop computer facility such as typing and searching savvy. #ohedchat

[David Liben @LibenDavid]

5.1 No research I know of has shown a boost from technology so I no answers I trust. There are equity issues here too. While nearly all students have some type of computer in their home, they don’t all have equal access. #ohedchat

RT Q5: How can technology support reading/writing across the content areas? #ohedchat

[David Liben @LibenDavid]

@TebnerEbner #ohedchat Yes, but in all subjects

[David Liben @LibenDavid]

2 Another absolutely fabulous resource by the Vermont Writing Collaborative. Annotates actual student writing samples to explain how they meet or don’t meet the standard being addressed. Found here #ohedchat

[David Liben @LibenDavid]

4.1 Weekly cross subject grade level meetings devoted to teachers sharing assignments, reasons for it and student work samples from it. The Instructional Practice Guide or IPG on https://t.co/AMoDIzykQC is helpful. #ohedchat @achievethecore

Q4: How can teachers support each other in working with literacy? #ohedchat

[David Liben @LibenDavid]

***Q4 is coming up in one minute! #ohedchat

[David Liben @LibenDavid]

3 Hundreds of topics to choose from, excellent for quick write responses or extended ones. Lots of science, history, arts. #ohedchat

[David Liben @LibenDavid]

2 This helps develop writing fluency ESPECIALLY if done across the content areas. ReadWorks (grew out of curriculum from school ML & I started in Harlem) has article a day sets (five connected articles are read, one a day). #ohedchat @ReadWorks

[David Liben @LibenDavid]

3.1 I also believe in quick writes as in the Collins writing program. Every day teachers ask a quick question/not graded/not great writing, just thoughts on paper, +/- 5m in response to that question. #ohedchat @JohnCollinsPUSD

RT Q3: What strategies can teachers use to meaningfully support reading/writing across the content areas? #ohedchat

[David Liben @LibenDavid]

@JMitchellELA @edtechgirl #ohedchat It is definitely a "both and" all students should have the opportunity to work with rich complex text --- but with LOTS of support. They also need to read as much as possible that they can read independently in order to grow knowledge, vocabulary and love of reading

#ohedchat In as study of which professions did the most reading , first was lawyers but second was scientists. Most find this very surprising but there are literally hundreds of thousands of journ
als and they get read
