Students can choose to read the books that are connected with class teacher's unit topics. 2. Students have been constantly practicing reading and writing skills in Mandarin. These language skills are also a focus in classroom. 3. Students have been constantly practicing presentation skills in Mandarin. The presentation skill is a very important component in literacy. 4. If there is any Word List and central idea of the Unit topic, Mandarin teacher can translate the Word List to Mandarin to support understanding. thuang6 https://padlet.com/connolly_caitlyn/literacy_specialists/wish/338262217 2019-03-06 07:37:30 UTC https://padlet.com/connolly_caitlyn/literacy_specialists/wish/338262217 art literacy https://padlet.com/connolly_caitlyn/literacy_specialists/wish/338262233 one of the most consistent forms of promoting literacy in the art room happens when i write the terms or definitions on the white board.  I'm not always sure who understands a new concept at first, but it gives a term to an idea and a chance to discuss it further.

This is especially helpful when the story is hard to follow or has missing pieces. For example, after hearing a story that seems to have missing pieces, I might write "my friend called me a name" on one post-it and "my teacher put me in time out" on another. "Hmm," I would say, "I think there are some missing pieces here. Then we work together to fill in the rest of the story. It can also help with students who tell stories non-sequentially.

- Balancing - teacher only demonstrations, small group demonstrations, two teacher demonstrations, full class "try-it" then discuss
- Constant reiteration of key instructional points - use of acronyms is sometimes a good way to help reinforce this
- Sharing of Student Ideas  - elbow partners, popcorn sharing, teacher repeats something that was overheard during activity or small group discussions
- Multimedia - video demonstrations, simplified and typed instructions on the monitor along with photo or video connection, pictures from previous classes, demonstrations from previous classes, reflect on activity after it is over (through pictures taken during that particular class)
- Seesaw - video creation (speaking), coaching, reflection, home connections 
- Encourage translation (during teacher instruction, sometimes reflects how we choose partners; teacher check-ins with students that might need language support)
- Writing in PE can happen, but needs to be simple and quick
- Picture connections - visual component on the monitor, really helps students relate to what we are talking about (eg "The Types of Hockey" - picture of ice hockey, broomball, floor hockey, roller hockey, field hockey, floorball)
- New vocabulary specific to games
- Posters on the gym walls detailing Locomotor Movement, Ball Manipulations Skills, Body Positioning, Strategy, and Learner Profile/Concepts

"Children of a parent with a mental illness (COPMI) are at higher risk of developing a mental health issue, compared to same age peers [7]. Given the prevalence and risks for these children, it is important that there are appropriate and accessible supports and interventions available to them. Most of these interventions aim to provide mental health literacy (MHL) and knowledge about their parents’ illness to young people."]]> 2019-03-06 08:04:28 UTC https://padlet.com/connolly_caitlyn/literacy_specialists/wish/338268308 Engaging all Learners in the Music Classroom stacey_stoltz https://padlet.com/connolly_caitlyn/literacy_specialists/wish/338268394 Cool article from NAfME]]> 2019-03-06 08:04:53 UTC https://padlet.com/connolly_caitlyn/literacy_specialists/wish/338268394 Adventure to Learning (Many Specialist connections) https://padlet.com/connolly_caitlyn/literacy_specialists/wish/338269498 https://www.adventure2learning.com//?action=root&controller=platform%2Fcatalog]]> 2019-03-06 08:10:04 UTC https://padlet.com/connolly_caitlyn/literacy_specialists/wish/338269498 https://www.aare.edu.au/blog/?tag=arts-based-teaching-of-literacy https://padlet.com/connolly_caitlyn/literacy_specialists/wish/338269517 2019-03-06 08:10:10 UTC https://padlet.com/connolly_caitlyn/literacy_specialists/wish/338269517 https://ww.greatminds.org/visual-art-literacy https://padlet.com/connolly_caitlyn/literacy_specialists/wish/338269590 2019-03-06 08:10:24 UTC https://padlet.com/connolly_caitlyn/literacy_specialists/wish/338269590 Bibliomediatherapy https://padlet.com/connolly_caitlyn/literacy_specialists/wish/338270895 ...is using books to support counseling.
