  11. What They Are • Modeling and scaffolding what reading in the content areas looks and sounds like • Teaching students what is important/vital information for a historian, geographer, economist, politician

  12. What They Are • Using the text book as a starting place not the definitive source • Reading a wide variety of texts • Maps, charts, tables, graphs, photographs, pictures, cartoons, journals, letters, documents, artifacts

  13. What Common Core Literacy Standards are NOT • … just having students read and write more • … assigning more vocabulary words to look up and write definitions for • … conducting basic literacy techniques to struggling readers during social studies

  14. What Common Core Literacy Standards are NOT • … giving students Venn diagrams and sentence diagramming assignments in social studies • …assigning more “What did you do during …” essays

Wellness Activity Log Name: ____________________________________ Class: _________________ Week#: ________ Due Date: ______________ Put a check next to the suggested exercise or activity that you completed each day. If you did something that is not listed, you can write it on the back or on the ‘other’ space. We hope that at least 1 exercise or activity from each category is checked each day. Physical Education and recess can be included. Remember to be specific. For example, if you have soccer practice, the stretches you do belong in the flexibility category, the running you did will go in the cardio-respiratory, etc.
