Im going to first describe the TRG. Due to our short time together, this session will provide an overview of the content of the TRG so that you have adequate prior knowledge in order to plan professional development for your teachers. We will view sections of the DVD as well as have some information presented on slides.
This is the table of contents from the Teacher Resource Guide. Its important to note that everything that is on the DVD is included in the TRG. However, there is more information in the TRG than there is on the DVD. So these two resources are really intended to be used together to provide high quality professional development.Im going to first describe the TRG.

8. Activity Plans

Sequenced in order of difficulty within each component
Activity Masters
Can be laminated and stored for future use
Student Sheets
Consumable
Master copies
Student Center Activities Another major part of the teacher resource guide is the section on the interpretation and implementation of activity plans. Teachers must understand how to read these plans in order to implement them.
Now we are going to turn our attention to the Activity Plans, Activity Masters, and Student Sheets found in Books 1 and 2. This section of the DVD and TRG describes how to read an Activity Plan. Remember, it is very important that all the activities are explicitly taught to students before they are placed at a center.

37. Hi! Im Little Bill. This is a story about a boat that 12
I made all by myself. I named it The Moby Dick. 23
One Saturday morning, I woke up and saw that it was 34
bright and sunny outside. Hurray! I could go with 43
my brother to the park and sail my new boat. 53
38. Fluency is the rate of accurate reading. Since rate is a factor, fluency is the reading component that is married to time. Consequently, it is very important that teachers and principals maintain a focus upon the end-of-year fluency goals. Teachers and principals need to determine the fluency trajectory across the school year for every student. To effectively meet the challenges that students have with fluency development, teachers need to establish a set of fluency routines for explicit, systematic fluency instruction.Fluency is the rate of accurate reading.

55. Text Comprehension
Additional information:
Text comprehension is the process that enables readers to make meaning of text and to communicate meaning about what was read (National Reading Panel, 2000).
Comprehension strategies are conscious plans or procedures, that good readers use to help them be aware of how well they are comprehending as they read and write (National Reading Panel, 2000).

58. It is important to always be cognizant of what task level of critical thinking at which you are teaching as well as which task level you are instructing toward.
This is what a semantic feature analysis looks like using words that are common in text such as: immense, tiny, ordinary. This semantic feature analysis provides opportunity for students to refine their understanding of vocabulary and concepts with which they are already familiar so that they can evaluate how to properly use them in relationship to one another.
