Thank you, Laura!

We need to address the PDs that just sort of fade away. A few years ago, EVERYTHING was drilling because, but, so ; appositives; and other Writing Revolution exercises and practices were everything, but now they are hardly used. What becomes of these ghosts that are wandering the halls of academe? Should we be retiring them? Holding a service for them and burying them? We have no closure on what was once considered of paramount importance. Is this simply what's hot at the moment? Has good teacherly practice become as ephemeral as the fashions we wear? . . . the food we eat?

The new literacy strategies this year like Stop 'n Jot, and Say, Mean, and Matter seems really helpful for all types of learners. We are still exploring these and can rotate these and many others throughout the year.

Thank you for your assistance!

Scaffolding, Graphic Organizers, Modeling Peer interactions and focusing on more inclusive and various access points. Building more skills and opportunities to practice newly acquired information and skills.

# data[].attributes.body
We need to continue to try to make sure our lessons include all students. If we're not reaching all students we might as well be teaching to a wall!

# data[].attributes.body
Thank you Laura for all of your support in getting this process started and helping our school become more cohesive and collaborative!

# data[].attributes.body
Absolutely. The ELA texts can enhance the lessons on history.

Also opportunities to collab on essay writing strategies

# data[].attributes.body
Trying to use more of the ELA terms in the writing aspect of the Soc St classes

Being more explicit with MHEAL when writing.

# data[].attributes.body
Thank you Laura for your help and support in setting up this collaboration!

# data[].attributes.body
It seems like English and Social Studies have real potential for collaboration

# data[].attributes.body
These curriculums are becoming more inclusive for all types of learners by providing a variety of scaffolding strategies and materials.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, History and ELA can continue to collaborate by teaching the MEAL plan in similar ways and making students aware of the slightly difference when writing.

# data[].attributes.body
We use graphic organizers, sentence starters, and other scaffolds to help the writing process.

# data[].attributes.body
It's also important to be explicit about how terms or a particular process can be different between the two subjects so that students don't get confused.

# data[].attributes.body
Allows checklist our balance between and among Reading, Writing, Listening & Speaking

# data[].attributes.body
Use of vocabulary foldables and Frayer model

# data[].attributes.body
Think about which transitions/sentence starters to use and when to roll them out so they coincide/reinforce what's happening in ELA/History

# data[].attributes.body
We can collaborate on creating a class workbook that has reference tables that are useful for SS and ELA/ESL.

# data[].attributes.body
We can find ways to scaffold writing in a similar way. i.e. MEAL paragraphs

# data[].attributes.body
Perhaps we can include some of the background information that might be helpful for books that are used in English classes. For example, we can include settings for The Breadwinner and Persepolis in Global History.

# data[].attributes.body
Work with Fariha, Karen and Daniel to cross reference my students English skill building.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes--there are some books taught in ELA that are relevant to certain Global topics, such as Islamic Fundamentalism/Iranian Revolution, apartheid, and imperialism. ELA teachers could check in with history teachers in order to align the vocabulary, etc

# data[].attributes.body
This was more useful than I thought honestly - it got me thinking about thinking this summer

# data[].attributes.body
Using common cross curricular language

# data[].attributes.body
Streamline "context" in a MEAL structured paragraph for both ELA and S.S.

# data[].attributes.body
US History can collaborate on topics like Constitutional Rights (Constitution) and the Warren Court with ELA's topic of Twleve Angry Men. Also, the Civil Rights Movement can connect to Raisin in the Sun.

# data[].attributes.body
We use LOTS of graphic organizers and scaffold materials so that all students can have an entry point.

# data[].attributes.body
One way is by using NEWSELA to adjust the lexile level for different groups of students

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, I need to collaborate more with the history department so I use the same language with my 10D class as well as with Mr. Parris to share common songs for students to analyze.

# data[].attributes.body
create a shared drive

# data[].attributes.body
Work with Daniel and Janice to streamline shared methodology, language and structures that crosses over both our curriculums

# data[].attributes.body
Establish the reading, writing, listening, speaking, editing & revising skills that are most pertanent for 9th grade with the ELA/ESL department and the SS department.

# data[].attributes.body
Possible collaboration between AP Lang & Gov (also Student Council) on campaign speeches and rhetorical strategies

# data[].attributes.body
Through the scaffolding of materials and resources.

# data[].attributes.body
Tons of opportunities based on content and skills with 11th Grade ELA, US History and Black History (Parris).

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, ELA and History can collaborate on the following skills: Annotations and Vocabulary! We have started to brainstorm ideas.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, there is overlap with topics/content, and we can work to align our curriculum with these topics. There are also opportunities for cross-curricular work.

# data[].attributes.body
I'm super impressed with the MHIS teachers- and thank you for your thoughtfulness and efforts

# data[].attributes.body
Possible collaboration between 11th Grade English & 11th/12th Grade Government on book bans (which level/branch of government does this), 12 Angry Men/Juries/Judges (good that they learn this before Supreme Court project)
