Future Items - what else can/should we do...

After we square away the strategy professional development workshops, we should be set 'til January. In the second semester we will be working on adding technology components to our literacy plan, continuing to monitor/survey use of the common strategies, and create a literacy showcase night.

Materials

If you go to this site, you will find a number of documents regarding literacy--what I like is that there are some examples of how to use anticiaption guides in math and tech ed. There's even some fine arts stuff.
