2 Language Arts teachers will meet weekly with the to unpack language arts standards, plan for instruction, analyze student work, and develop assessments. The work will be centered around four focus questions. (What do we want students to learn? How will we know they are learning? What will we do when they already know? What will we do when they don't know?) All Language Arts teachers will conduct Shared Inquiry in their classrooms through the resources from the Junior Great Books Curriculum. Students will practice close reading as they analyze character traits, feelings, and motives within the stories. Their annotations will be used as they participate in a Shared Inquiry discussion based upon an interpretative question about the text. They will also compose individual responses to interpretive questions, using text evidence to support their arguments. Reading Specialists and Title I Teachers will coach language arts teachers, modeling, coteaching, providing feedback, and collaborating about how instruction is producing student achievement.

3 Teachers will track student data and methods of remediation on Tier Two and Tier Three students through Responsive Plans and will meet monthly to collaborate with other classroom teachers about remediation strategies. Teacher Data Notebooks Teachers will spend at least sixty minutes a day (per class) in small group reading instruction, supporting students in their use of decoding and comprehension strategies to monitor comprehension. Students will read independently for at least 20 minutes daily and use Edmodo, Socrative, or a response journal as a means of reflection of writing and literature instruction. Student Response Journals Teachers will be trained in the development and use of close reads and will include them in whole group and small group instruction. Teachers will provide direct instruction in word study and vocabulary at least three times/week. Teachers will participate in Quarterly Reading Data Meetings to track student progress. Each quarter, the literacy team will meet for an extended collaboration session to do a grade level data stepback. After this meeting, skill flex groups will be created to provide remediation for struggling students in specific areas of deficit. data reports DSS
4 Teachers will use observations during summative assessments, along with student scores to track student stamina on text-dependent assessments. This information will be used to conference with students about comprehension monitoring strategies used during testing. Goals will be set after each test for an increase in stamina while testing - more answers correct within one day of testing. Students and parents will participate in two literacy nights where reading will be celebrated and reading strategies will be explained to parents.
