Description
This professional development package includes Done-for-You Slides & Resources described below:
1.) Supporting Reading Comprehension in Secondary Classrooms PD slide deck
15 PowerPoint slides ready for use with speaker notes
2.) Think-Aloud Starters for Every Discipline (Teacher Tool)
Sentence stems to help teachers make invisible thinking visible — the missing link for students who can decode, but can’t necessarily interpret discipline-specific texts.
3.) Disciplinary Text Analysis Planning Template (Team/PLC Tool)
Use this in PLCs to help teams plan for comprehension rather than react to gaps after the fact. Teachers identify the purpose of the text, where students will struggle, and which routines or scaffolds will support understanding.
4.) Classroom Look-Fors for Secondary Reading Comprehension (Leader Tool)
Perfect for your next walkthrough cycle. These look-fors help you see whether students are actually engaging in disciplinary reading (not just copying, annotating without a clear purpose, or guessing).
