About this Event
Welcome, CUNY/UA secondary ELA teachers! We look forward to a fruitful day of learning with you on Tuesday, December 9. Our objectives:
1. Review text engineering principles and 3 Levels of Text Questioning strategy
2. Differentiate between activating and building background knowledge, and plan to do both within ELA lessons
3. Explore the research behind the Talk-Read-Talk-Write protocol, and apply it to an ELA lesson
4. Leverage background knowledge to spark and drive discussion throughout an ELA lesson
