11 Boy-Friendly Environment Safe environment Trust Encouragement specific feedback common language Comfortable environment physical National Common Core Writing Standards Specific to NYS Responding to Literature Develop personal, cultural and thematic connections within and across genres as they respond to texts through written, digital, and oral presentations, employing a variety of media and genre.
12 Instructional Strategies Picture it Talk about it Write about it National Common Core Writing Standards Research to Build and Present Knowledge Conduct short and sustained research projects demonstrating understanding of the content Gather information from multiple print and digital sources, assess credibility of sources Draw evidence from literary or informational texts to support analysis, reflection, research
13 Picture It Pictures with labels and captions Story sequence picture frames Maps Graphic organizers
14 Talking Strategies Turn and talk Questions and compliments Writing partners and meeting places National Common Core Speaking and Listening Standards Comprehension and Collaboration Prepare for and participate in a range of conversations and collaborations with diverse partners, building on each others ideas and expressing their own clearly and persuasively Evaluate the speakers point of view, reasoning and use of evidence
15 Conferring with Boys Need more processing time Guiding questions I notice that This makes me wonder about Tell me more about What s the most important thing Specific feedback Highlight key ideas & words Your details help me make a picture in my mind. National Common Core Speaking and Listening Standards Comprehension and Collaboration Presentation of Knowledge and Ideas
16 Reading in an All-Boy Class Boy topics Authentic reasons to read Build reading stamina Many different texts to read Many different ways to read Boy-friendly environment National Common Core Reading Standards Key Ideas and Details Craft And Structure Integration of Knowledge and Ideas Range of Reading and Level of Text Complexity Responding to Literature (Specific to NYS)
17 Instructional Strategies for Boys Incorporate movement, competition, hands-on activities, and social interaction. Encourage boys visual-spatial strengths by using visual aids, such as pictures and graphic organizers, to plan and demonstrate their thinking. Give boys talk time to process their thinking. Allow boys to read and write about topics that interest them. Boys like gross things, bodily functions, and violence. Allow boys to talk and write about them. Take time to build relationships with the boys.
18 In the Boys Words I think being in an all-boys class is awesome because you get certain freedoms that you usually wouldn t get in a normal classroom. Like it s ok to say potty words in class, but it s not ok to write them on paper. I think that boys learn more in this class. You get to talk about boy stuff and write about boy stuff. You get to put your feet up during read-aloud. We have a good time together. I m getting way better report cards. You get to sit on your desks and move around. You get to draw monsters, blood, gross things, and read good books. I get an opportunity to have fun with other boys and there are no girls around to talk about ponies and stuff.
19 For all children Students will be more motivated to learn when the following needs have been met: to feel a sense of belonging and connectedness to the school; to feel a sense of autonomy and selfdetermination; and to feel competent. - Edward Deci, University of Rochester
