Overview of the Whole Group Teaching Plan – WEEKS 1-8 (~40-45 Minutes)The following is the new framework for the reading block. Scroll down to see what each lesson entails. The activities and page numbers listed below are from Texas Senderos. The textbook is designed for a 90 minute reading block. Since the bilingual reading block is only 60 minutes, pacing of the lessons is imperative in order to cover all of the content and TEKS. More than likely, teachers will not be able to cover everything listed during the 40- 45 minute whole group time. Therefore, the most important activities must be selected from the list below based on the needs of the students. Careful planning is essential to make certain students’ needs are addressed and that all of the TEKS are taught by the end of the year as well. Some activities may have to be saved until the next day or combined with another lesson due to reteaching and corrective feedback lessons. Material that is skipped can also be covered during the review/reteach week (week 9).Week nine is designated for literature circles, but 10-20 minutes can be spent on reviewing and reteaching lessons before the students read their novels.

All of the activities in Senderos are differentiated and are based on the gradual release of responsibility model.

Create teacher-made work stations based on the skills learned during the week or the previous week(s).

The HMH Ready-Made Work Stations may be used to supplement the teacher-made stations. They include the following:o Comprehension and Fluencyo Word Studyo Think and Write

See the following pages for a preview of the weekly work stations:

(Unidad 3)oWeek 1: Review SkillsoWeek 2: pp. T274-T275oWeek 3: pp. T362-T363

The work stations should reinforce what was taught during whole group time.

Include differentiated activities to meet the needs of all learners.

See the online Teacher Toolkit for ideas on what to include at the different literacy stations.

If supplementing with the HMH Ready-Made Work Stations, each

station contains three activities. Children who complete the ¡A comenzar! activity may move on to the ¡Logra más! and/or ¡Reto! activity.

Small group instruction must be tailored to the needs of the students. Look at the Suggested Small Group Plan in the Senderos T.E. to determine what materials each group will use.

For students that need additional assistance on specific skills, refer to the differentiation tab in the Teacher Toolkit and click on Instructional Interventions.

In lieu of work stations, two days per week, students can complete an independent reading assignment or reader response activity while the teacher meets with small groups.

DifferentiationHow do I differentiate during reading? Since you only have 60 minutes for the reading block,

it is very important that you maximize instruction to the fullest. The Curriculum Framework has suggested times for the breakdown of the reading block. Specific times for each component are not give because the amount of time spent on each component depends on the needs of the class.

If a 50+% of the class scores below 70% on the weekly assessment (comprehension, vocabulary, phonics), do a whole class reteach of the skills students had the most difficulty with. If only a small percentage of students scored below 70% on the

weekly assessment, reteach the lesson(s) during small group instruction.

See the Teacher Toolkit for additional ideas on how to differentiate the components of literacy. (Differentiation Strategies)

What do you do for students who need additional support? Students will meet with the teacher for small group guided

reading instruction. The teacher will do a skills lesson to address the needs of students and the students will apply that skill to their reading.

If students are struggling with on-grade level activities, use the SLAR TEKS Vertical Alignment piece to select student expectations from the previous grade level to fill in the gaps.

Select the appropriate Senderos Libro graduable for the reading groups based on the students’ reading level. Books should be at the instructional or

independent level in order for the students to be successful.

Work stations must be differentiated to meet the needs of the learner. Students will have additional practice to help them master the skills learned during whole group instruction.

What do you do for students who master the learning quickly? Activities/materials offered during small group

guided reading instruction and work stations are differentiated to meet the needs of the learner. Advanced learners should be provided with challenging activities and books.

If students are having an easy time with on-grade level activities, use the SLAR TEKS Vertical Alignment piece (pink pages) to select student expectations from the next grade level to challenge students more.

DifferentiationHow do I differentiate during reading? Since you only have 60 minutes for the reading

block, it is very important that you maximize instruction to the fullest. The Curriculum Framework has suggested times for the breakdown of the reading block. Specific times for each component are not give because the amount of time spent on each component depends on the needs of the class.

If a 50+% of the class scores below 70% on the weekly assessment (comprehension, vocabulary, phonics), do a whole class reteach of the skills students had the most difficulty with. If only a small percentage of students scored below 70% on the weekly assessment, reteach the

What do you do for students who need additional support? Students will meet with the teacher for small

group guided reading instruction. The teacher will do a skills lesson to address the needs of students and the students will apply that skill to their reading.

If students are struggling with on-grade level activities, use the SLAR TEKS Vertical Alignment piece to select student expectations from the previous grade level to fill in the gaps.

Select the appropriate Senderos Libro graduable for the reading groups based on the students’ reading level. Books should be at the instructional or independent level in order for the students to be successful.

What do you do for students who master the learning quickly? Activities/materials offered during small group

guided reading instruction and work stations are differentiated to meet the needs of the learner. Advanced learners should be provided with challenging activities and books.

If students are having an easy time with on-grade level activities, use the SLAR TEKS Vertical Alignment piece (pink pages) to select student expectations from the next grade level to challenge students more.

Power Standards represent the essential knowledge and skills students need for success in high school and beyond. Power Standards must be mastered to successfully pass the required assessments at each grade level. All TAKS eligible knowledge and skills are identified as Power Standards.

Small group instruction must be tailored to the needs of the students. Look at the Suggested Small Group Plan in the Senderos T.E. to determine what materials each group will use.

For students that need additional assistance on specific skills, refer to the differentiation tab in the Teacher Toolkit and click on Instructional Interventions.

In lieu of work stations, two days per week, students can complete an independent reading assignment or reader response activity while the teacher meets with small groups.

DifferentiationHow do I differentiate during reading? Since you only have 60 minutes for the reading

block, it is very important that you maximize instruction to the fullest. The Curriculum Framework has suggested times for the breakdown of the reading block. Specific times for each component are not give because the amount of time spent on each component depends on the needs of the class.

If a 50+% of the class scores below 70% on the weekly assessment (comprehension, vocabulary, phonics), do a whole class reteach of the skills students had the most difficulty with. If only a small percentage of students scored below 70% on the weekly assessment, reteach the lesson(s) during small group instruction.

See the Teacher Toolkit for additional ideas on how to differentiate the components of literacy. (Differentiation Strategies)

What do you do for students who need additional support? Students will meet with the teacher for small

group guided reading instruction. The teacher will do a skills lesson to address the needs of students and the students will apply that skill to their reading.

If students are struggling with on-grade level activities, use the SLAR TEKS Vertical Alignment piece to select student expectations from the previous grade level to fill in the gaps.

Select the appropriate Senderos Libro graduable for the reading groups based on the students’ reading level. Books should be at the instructional or independent level in order for the students to be successful.

Work stations must be differentiated to meet the needs of the learner. Students will have additional practice to help them master the skills learned during whole group instruction.

What do you do for students who master the learning quickly? Activities/materials offered during small group

guided reading instruction and work stations are differentiated to meet the needs of the learner. Advanced learners should be provided with challenging activities and books.

If students are having an easy time with on-grade level activities, use the SLAR TEKS Vertical Alignment piece (pink pages) to select student expectations from the next grade level to challenge students more.

The Teaching Plan for Literature CirclesWEEK 9

Before daily literature circles, the first 10-15 minutes of week 9 are to be used for reviewing and reteaching skills covered during weeks 1-8.If any lessons were skipped during previous weeks due to time constraints, these can be covered as well. After the daily lesson/review, the rest

of the reading block will be devoted to literature circles. See the Teacher Toolkit and the websites listed below for information on literature circles. A sample lesson with roles is included in the Teacher Toolkit. Gather multiple copies of chapter books (Teacher Toolkit: Spanish Titles for Literature Circles) or use the HMH Senderos leveled readers. Do a “Book Pass” (Teacher Toolkit: Book Pass) so that students may sample each book before making choices. Review the roles from the first nine weeks. (See below.) Once the groups are divided, students will be assigned roles on a daily basis. Give students their role sheets to fill out during/after reading (optional). Groups will discuss their books. The teacher visits each group to listen in on the discussion and offer ideas to spark additional conversation. The whole class meets daily to debrief and share their books. If the book cannot be completed in a week, literature circles may be continued the following week during small group time.

Basic Roles in Literature Circles Explique a los alumnos los roles de los círculos literarios. Role cards are available on the Teacher Toolkit.

o Conector: El rol es conectar y extender la comprensión de la novela al mundo fuera de los mismos. Relaciona lo leído con las propias experiencias en el mundo real, con su propia vida, con lo que sucede en la escuela, la comunidad, con otros eventos similares en otros lugares o en otro tiempo, con situaciones que hayan vivido/sufrido otras personas. Cualquier relación que se haga es válida y digna de ser compartida. El conector tiene que asegurarse que esas experiencias sean claras y tengan significado para los miembros del grupo.

o Iluminador: El rol es hallar pasajes interesantes, divertidos, controvertidos, emocionantes y con un gran significado dentro de la historia. Hay que escoger pasajes memorables.

o Buscador de palabras: El rol es buscar palabras y/o términos importantes al estar leyendo. Van a copiar esas palabras/términos y definirlas. Hay que copiar la oración en la que la palabra se emplea en el texto y escribir el número de la página. El buscador de palabras tiene que usar el contexto para determinar el significado de la palabra primero y luego puede usar el diccionario para confirmarlo. Las palabras escogidas deben ser interesantes, nuevas, con gran significado o que pocas veces las lee. En los apuntes, hay que explicar por qué escogió la palabra.

o Sintetizador: El rol es elaborar un resumen de la historia o capítulo, y obtener las ideas principales para discutirlas.o Artista o Ilustrador : El rol es dibujar las escenas importantes, las ideas, los personajes, o los problemas que se presentan en la historia. Se puede utilizar diferentes

métodos para “ilustrar” lo que lees: collages, símbolos, mapas de organización, secuencias de dibujos animados, etc. En la hoja de notas, hay que explicar la ilustración y cómo se relaciona con el texto.

Structured Literature Circles http://www.litcircles.org/- This website offers advice on literature circle planning, structure, book choice, written responses, book extension projects, etc. The approach

offered here is not role-centered. Instead students will formulate questions, respond to prompts, and use post-it notes to prepare for discussion. http://www.heinemann.com/shared/onlineresources/E00702/minilessons.pdf. This site contains specific chapters from the book, Mini-lessons for Literature Circles by Harvey Daniels, electronically. Look at page 113 for information on the ”Book Pass” activity.
