  2. Welcome When I am writing, I am trying to find out who I am, who we are, what we're capable of, how we feel…I love it for what it does for us, how it allows us to explain the pain and the glory, the nuances and delicacies of our existence. – Maya Angelou

  11. What is SRSD? Self-Regulated Strategy Development Developed by Karen Harris, and colleagues How would you describe: • Strategies? • Self-regulation?

  12. Remember… • SRSD Is Not a scripted program • SRSD is a pedagogical framework and a collection of best practices • SRSD offers resources “I absolutely love that SRSD is not a program. It is a set of procedures that I can internalize and integrate into my existing program.” (Quote from Karen Devereux, Literacy Specialist, Barton VT)

  13. Why SRSD? Sample 1 (Myths about Insects): Spiders, ticks and bugs can creep in your house. Sample 2 (Surprising caterpillar birth facts): There are several facts about the birth of a caterpillar. the mother lays its egg at the end of summer, then dies. The egg is laid on a milkweed leaf. a newborn is up to 2-3 millimeters. when a baby caterpillar hatches it eats its own eggshell. Maybe the egg is laid on a milkweed plant to protect it from predators.

  14. Why SRSD? A: Pre-test (Myths about insects) Spiders, ticks and bugs can creep in your house. B: Post-test (Surprising caterpillar birth facts) There are several facts about the birth of a caterpillar. 1) the mother lays its egg at the end of summer, then dies. 2) The egg is laid on a milkweed leaf. 3) a newborn is up to 2-3 millimeters. 4) when a baby caterpillar hatches it eats its own eggshell. Maybe the egg is laid on a milkweed plant to protect it from predators.

  15. Still in Need of SRSD • Writing at the same time as Shakespeare was Miguel Cervantes. He wrote Donkey Hote. The next great author was John Milton. Milton wrote Paradise Lost. Then his wife died and he wrote Paradise Regained. • Socrates was a famous Greek teacher who went around giving people advice. They killed him. • Homer wrote The Oddity, in which Penelope was the last hardship that Ulysses endured on his journey. Actually, Homer was not written by Homer, but by another man of that name.
