The Innovators: Integrating Literacy into Curriculum, Aug/2013

Meet the challenge of the new definition of literacy based on the Common Coe State Standards by integrating literacy learning into all content areas. This DVD takes you and your colleagues to two sites where educators integrate complex thinking and communication skills throughout subject area instruction and raise the bar for student achievement. In compelling examples from an elementary school district—with 35 percent English learner students and two-thirds of its schools Title 1—and a high school whose literacy model has been adopted by schools across the country—see how educators can collaborate to make advancing literacy learning a top priority.
