Interested in helping your science students become better readers? The Reading Apprenticeship approach models discipline-specific literacy skills and establishes routines for discussion and collaboration that tap students' own experiences. Come learn from two Mi-STAR teachers about how they incorporated literacy supports within Mi-STAR units using Reading Apprenticeship strategies, and see how you can use these supports in your own classroom. SCECHs available for Mi-STAR teachers.
The Mi-STAR Learning Series offers virtual presentations and discussions via Zoom on topics relevant to middle school science teachers. Breakout rooms and a whole group discussion component follows each presentation to promote a sense of community and collaboration among participants.
This is a virtual session, hosted by Mi-STAR staff. Session runs from 3:30 to 5 p.m.
