Literacy Strategies Flashcards
Literacy Strategy
systematic approaches good readers use to extract info from texts
Elementary schools must provide reading instruction in a block of at least XX minutes a day

FL’s Formula for Success, 6 + 4 + ii + iii: 6 means…
6 components of reading: oral language, phonological awareness, phonics, fluency, vocab, comp
FL’s Formula for Success, 6 + 4 + ii + iii: 4 means…
4 assessment types: screening, diagnostic, progress monitoring, outcome measures
FL’s Formula for Success, 6 + 4 + ii + iii: ii means…
ii = initial instruction that is print rich, scaffolded, differentiated, etc.
FL’s Formula for Success, 6 + 4 + ii + iii: iii means…
iii = immediate, intensive intervention (MTSSS)
CCRP
Comprehensive Core Reading Program: elementary schools must base initial instruction (ii) on CCRP
In elementary, scoring below a Level X on a statewide standardized test means you have…
a substantial reading deficiency and qualify for iii
If a grade 3 student does not score Level X or higher they must be “retained”
Level 2! And parents must be notified
Middle/high school students who score Level X must complete an intensive reading course
Level 1 (dummies)
Middle/high school students who score Level X must complete an intensive reading course OR a “content area reading intervention course”
Level 2 (less dumb)
Middle/high school students who score BELOW Level X must have their reading deficiencies diagnosed by district
Level 3 (middle dumbness)
FCRR
FL Center for Reading Research (I’m guessing a corporate facility that gets govt cash to send out “reading coaches” to waste teachers’ time)
FAIR
FL Assessments for Instruction in Reading (K-12 screening, diagnostic, and prgoress-monitoring data).
FAIR is given X times a year
3, beginning middle and end
PMRN
Progress Monitoring and Reporting Network. Database for student test scores
Reading/literacy coaches
Lead PD, “report their time to PMRN on a biweekly basis,” NOT teachers but “model” shit IN teachers’ classrooms???
Emergent Literacy
Precursors to conventional forms of reading and writing
3 Most Important Emergent Literacy Skills
Oral language, concepts of print (knowing diff between cover and pages, reading goes left to right…smh), phonological sensitivity
CVC words
consonant-vowel-consonant: kids should be able to distinguish the phonemes
Alphabetic Principle
the concept that letters and letter patterns represent the sounds of spoken language
Shared Reading
Parent reads while child looks at text
