Right now, I have three students in my sheltered course who cannot write their names or identify letters/letter sounds. My fellow sheltered-instruction teachers and I would love any strategies you may have.

]]> 2023-11-09 14:55:37 UTC https://padlet.com/Inlier_Learning/UTASummitNov9/wish/2783490962 How do we differentiate instruction for students who are basically starting from scratch with reading and writing, i.e. little to no phonemic awareness? I understand the idea of adding more scaffolds but if the starting point is beyond what they are able to do (let's say a 2nd grade reading level which is the Goldilocks sweet spot for the majority of my students), what do you do? https://padlet.com/Inlier_Learning/UTASummitNov9/wish/2783581913 2023-11-09 15:54:59 UTC https://padlet.com/Inlier_Learning/UTASummitNov9/wish/2783581913 Thank You! https://padlet.com/Inlier_Learning/UTASummitNov9/wish/2783595781 Thank you for the information, this was very helpful.

]]> 2023-11-09 19:35:25 UTC https://padlet.com/Inlier_Learning/UTASummitNov9/wish/2783870149 Generally, you can only award credit if you have a transcript to base it on. Even then, they might expect students to prove they learned something in that class. However, in some places, there is a test students can take to get awarded public school credit for learning in non-accredited programs. https://padlet.com/Inlier_Learning/UTASummitNov9/wish/2783898671 2023-11-09 19:59:13 UTC https://padlet.com/Inlier_Learning/UTASummitNov9/wish/2783898671 Give the students what they want. In Maryland, they are guaranteed admission and tuition in a community college if they completed high school in MARYLAND. If they completed high school elsewhere, then they don't receive that benefit. --- I believe many states have similar laws. https://padlet.com/Inlier_Learning/UTASummitNov9/wish/2783900656 2023-11-09 20:01:14 UTC https://padlet.com/Inlier_Learning/UTASummitNov9/wish/2783900656 https://padlet.com/Inlier_Learning/UTASummitNov9/wish/2783920878 https://docs.google.com/document/d/1VAdMdrhSK_vPhF4B7wzX3L92IlFrnAVkssXP5djAnec/edit?usp=sharing

Although the LESLLA organization focuses on adult SLIFE, most of their literacy development resources are appropriate for adolescents https://www.leslla.org/teacher-resources


My book, SLIFE: What Every Teacher Needs to Know offers some basic literacy strategies. Meeting the Needs of SLIFE: A Guide for Educators (second edition), co-authored with H.W. Marshall, discusses intake and assessment of prior schooling.
