Session 7 Learning Goals

  • Review the content from the whole-group seminar speaker, Dr. Enid M. Rosario-Ramos
  • Continue to think about how you can design lessons/units that push your students to become disciplinary thinkers.

________________________________________________________________________________

    For this exploratory you will review the powerpoint from our whole-group seminar. While reviewing the slides, consider the following:

    • How might you approach your lessons differently to support students to hone in on skills related to a specific discipline?
    • How will you engage students in the interpretation and production of a diverse array of discipline-specific content and/or texts?
    • How can you create an environment in which students regularly engage in the appropriate use of disciplinary language?
