I'm sorry I'm so far behind on my emails, but I wrote up something on the Tools page http://www.u46teachers.org/mosaic/tools/tools.htm called "Inservice Write Up by Heather" about when I did a 6 hour inservice on the comp. strategies with a faculty. I used the gradual release model with them by having them participate in each strategy and gradually releasing them from participating whole group to sticky notes to creating lessons by the end. YOu might be able to break that up or use some of that info for your yearlong inservice. Good luck! Heather Wall/ Instructional Coach/ Georgia NBCT 2005 Literacy: Reading - Language Arts

Hi fellow reading enthusiasts, I was recently awarded an amazing opportunity by my coordinator: the chance to present the comprehension strategies to our k-5 team in hopes of adopting them across the grade levels. I am extremely excited about this as I have been pushing for a reading coach position at my school (there currently isn't even the position in my school, so i'd be the first) and I feel like this presentation will be kind of like an interview. Currently, I am the ONLY one who is fluent, even familiar in the comprehension strategies as well as all the other amazing books out there including Miller, McGregor, Zimmerman, etc. so it is extremely important that I am very well prepared. I have to plan a year long staff development plan, with an introductory presentation of the readers workshop model, and a different strategy each month. I'd like to provide the teachers with sample lessons, anchor charts, and videos of my own teaching. I remember reading on this email group of someone having to do the same thing and I'd LOVE if you or anyone else, could share some information with me (ideas, plans, resources, etc). Thank you for your help!
