  1. Design Literacy by The Education Trust

  2. The challenge. Unlike mathematics, secondary literacy is not a discipline. It is “homeless” in that it belongs to everyone and no one. Literacy is used in secondary classrooms, but it is not taught in a systematic way.

  3. The opportunity. Having a set of common standards also lays the groundwork for developing assessments aligned with those college-ready standards and for developing teaching tools that are aligned with both the standards and the assessments. It is a mountain of work, but it’s work that is essential for creating a system of education that is cohesive and coherent. -VickiPhillips& CarinaWong

  4. The plan. While the English language arts classroom has often been seen as the proper site for literacy instruction, this document acknowledges that the responsibility for teaching such skills must also extend to other content areas. http://www.corestandards.org

  5. The tool. Literacy by Design (LBD) is a user-friendly, “plug-and-play” instructional spine built on the Common Core Standards. LBD helps teachers develop (and teach!) literacy-saturated courses across core content areas. Courses that prepare students for college.

  6. How does LBD work?

  7. 9 • The power of How does LBD work? • strategies

  8. 9 • Adjust rigor as high-leverage instructional strategy. • Acceleration for struggling students. • Lead with literacy, then add content. • Connect reading and writing. • Teachers in control—ELA, social studies, and science. • Professional support • Put teaching tasks front and center. • Connect teaching tasks with instruction. • Pushing the delivery system envelope

  9. L1 Persuasive Essay Teaching Task Learning Goal: Write persuasive essay to academic audience in response to reading in content area (ELA, social studies, and science) Literacy by Design

  10. Common CoreLiteracy Standards(Persuasive Level 1) Literacy by Design

  11. Level1 • After reading__________ (topic/issue), write an essay that argues your position, pro or con, on___________ and support your position with evidence from your readings. Level 2 Template prompt(no content): • Be sure to examinecompeting arguments. Level 3 • As well, give examples from past or current events or issues to illustrate and clarify your position.

  13. Flexible use of prompt for instruction: Teacher can vary level of demand as instructional strategy. • Task: Select level 1,2, or 3 task • Reading: Vary text complexity, genre, length, familiarity, etc. • Writing: Vary exemplars, length, etc. • Pacing: Vary workload and time allowed to complete Literacy by Design

  14. Scoring System Literacy by Design

  15. Ladder The Instructional Ladder provides teacher support for creating strong lesson plans that go along with the teaching task. Notes Instructional notes provide additional teacher supports that go along with the instructional ladder. The Instructional Module Support Acceleration modules focus on specific core skills students need to succeed on the assignment, with teacher supports for key instructional strategies.
