3. Overview of the Sessions

4. Outcomes • Deepen an understanding of the instructional shifts, structure and demands of the Common Core State Standards • Learn about using the LDC framework to design instruction to meet the expectations of the Common Core • Use an LDC Template Task to create a Teaching Task to target grade level Common Core aligned skills and instruction • Gain a deeper understanding of the role of text complexity • Plan aligned/coherent mini tasks that provide formative teaching and learning opportunities • Share high-leverage instructional strategies • Discover supports for implementing LDC

5. Norms • What working agreements will help make today be successful for you?

6. Instructional Shifts Required by the Common Core • Increasing rigor and relevance • Sharing responsibility of teaching reading and writing across content areas • Building knowledge through content-rich nonfiction and informational text • Reading, writing, speaking and listening grounded in evidence from texts • Practicing regularly with complex text and its academic vocabulary • Emphasizing 3 modes of academic writing • Addressing grade level literacy outcomes

11. Deconstructing a Standard –Reading Standard for Informational Text 1Anchor Standard: Read closely to determine what the text says explicitly and to make logical inferences from it; cite specific textual evidence when writing or speaking to support conclusions drawn from the text. Grade and Standard K - With prompting and support, ask and answer questions about key details in a text. 1st - Ask and answer questions about key details in a text. 2nd - Ask and answer such questions as who, what, where, when, why, and how to demonstrateunderstanding of key details in a text. Change in Expectations Ask and answer questions about key details in a text. (no prompting) Ask and answer such questions as who, what, where, when, why, and howto demonstrateunderstanding of key details in a text.

12. Grade and Standard 2nd - Ask and answer such questions as who, what, where, when, why, and how to demonstrateunderstanding of key details in a text. 3rd - Ask and answer questions to demonstrate understanding of a text, referring explicitly to the text as the basis for the answers. 4th - Refer to details and examples in a text when explaining what the text says explicitly and when drawing inferences from the text. 5th - Quote accurately from a text when explaining what the text says explicitly and when drawing inferences from the text.

26. What Are the Implications? What Did You Notice?

27. Overview of the LDC Framework

28. A Look at LDC in the Classroom What do you notice that the teacher is saying and doing? What do you notice that the students are saying and doing? Literacy Matters http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O5EnOVjRPGI

29. What Task? - Section 1 The Core of the LDC Framework Why the emphasis on tasks? “What was different in the four classrooms was what students were actually being asked to do, and the degree to which the teacher was able to engage students in the work by scaffolding their learning up to the complexity of the task she was asking them to do.” – Richard Elmore Rounds in Education. lizabeth A. City, Richard F. Elmore, Sarah E. Fiarman, and Lee Teitel

30. Creating Rich Teaching Tasks • “… the basic components of a writing assignment or prompt are: (a) the topic, (b) the audience, and the rhetorical structure or genre to be produced.” • “A poorly designed writing prompt can result in student writing that does not meet the intended requirements of the teacher.” • “The Literacy Design Collaborative (LDC) proposes that good writing prompts can be formulated using prefabricated task templates that allow the teacher to customize.” Close Reading and Writing From Sources by Douglas Fisher and Nancy Frey 2014
