Teaching Reading: 3-5 Workshop
Annenberg Media
This video workshop with auxiliary classroom videos will show intermediate elementary teachers how to help their students transition from "learning to read" to "reading to learn." Eight half-hour workshop video programs feature leading experts who discuss current research on learning to read and teaching a diverse range of students. The research is illustrated by clips from real classroom lessons, allowing teachers to better understand and apply the research in their own classes. The entire classroom lessons are included in eight additional video programs for optional further exploration of each topic. A five-minute introductory program provides a preview of all the components of the workshop with highlights from each program. It can be used to familiarize viewers with the goals of the workshop or for guidance on selecting a topic from the workshop videos. This DVD contains: (Workshop 1) Creating Contexts for Learning; (Workshop 2) Fluency and Word Study; (Workshop 3) Building Comprehension; (Workshop 4) Writing; (Workshop 5) New Literacies on the Internet; (Workshop 6) Teaching English Language Learners; (Workshop 7) Teaching Diverse Learners; (Workshop 8) Assessment and Accountability; (Classroom Program 9) Investigating Word Meaning; (Classroom Program 10) Fostering Book Discussions; (Classroom Program 11) Choosing Words Strategically; (Classroom Program 12) Revising for Clarity; (Classroom Program 13) Reading Across the Curriculum; (Classroom Program 14) Looking at Cause and Effect; (Classroom Program 15) Close Reading for Understanding; and (Classroom Program 16) Summarizing Nonfiction.
