4 Literacy Work Stations by Debbie Diller A literacy work station is an area within the classroom where students work alone or interact with one another, using instructional materials to explore and expand their literacy. It is a place where a variety of activities reinforce and/or extend learning, often without the assistance of the classroom teacher.
5 For any teacher Experienced Novice Varied teaching styles A way to reorganize materials you already have for maximum learning A way to facilitate and reach individuals and small groups (Running Records, Guided Reading, and One-on-One)
6 Running Records/Guided Reading
7 Engaging the Brain To increase students intrinsic motivation and keep their attention: Provide choices Make learning relevant and personal Make it engaging Change in location Balance of novelty and ritual
8 Student Engagement Emphasis on practice meaningful, independent practice Teacher models and students take responsibility for their own learning Students share in decision making ALL students get to participate in work stations for equal amounts of time, with equal access Allows for differentiation Students internalize what is taught
9 Slow Down Take lots of time at the beginning of the year. End of October? Class management in place; routines and structures understood Gradual addition of material
10 In the beginning Show children exactly: How to use equipment How to share materials How to take turns How to use planning board How to solve problems Where to go for help How to put things away How to switch to next station
11 Training the Class Whole class instruction Modeling, showing how to do something Inviting students to help out Gradually turning over more of the task as student skills increase Move into independent practice Risk-free peer interactions; acceptance, peer-tutoring; constructivism
12 And just when will this happen??? Maintaining balanced literacy program our story how to make it work without regimentation Practical application of literacy skills with specific focus Within first block before morning recess 40 minutes ~ or so Dependent on group, day, teacher needs 2 rotations
13 Practice and Purpose: Link to your Teaching Begin with what you are trying to teach the whole class your purpose then figure out what materials you want to use Teach the process of working with the materials within the context of the whole class so children become familiar with the tasks and understand the expectations If student practice is directly tied to instruction, students will follow-through and will understand process
