Leading Literacy Across the Disciplines
2019
Overview
Districts in Maryland and Michigan start small with a WestEd program to build content-area learning in the upper grades Faced with the question, \"I low can we impact more secondary school students who are struggling readers?\" administrators in Maniands Washington County Public Schools decided to start small with crossdisciplinary literacy. In summer 2018, district leadership strategically selected a four-teacher, ÍJth-grade team to participate in a series of Reading Apprenticeship professional development sessions sponsored by the Maryland State Department of Education. Reading Apprenticeship shows how teachers can build on secondary students' personal strengths and enthusiasm for social interaction to develop the cognitive skills and knowledge necessary to engage with rigorous content in science, history, English language arts and math. Students worked collabora tively to interpret these texts while Jamieson probed learning with metacognitive and cognitive questions: \"Why do you think that?\" \"What does her voice add?\" Similarly, in tearhpr Sanaa Avoub's llth-grade psychology class, students individually and collabo o i vely read a journal article about new experimental evidence related to the effects of marijuana on adolescent brains.
