Workshop Models for Literacy and Math

Event Details

How can we find enough time to do it all? In a workshop model of instruction, there are three typical components: First, the teacher leads a mini lesson. Then students work independently, with partners, or in small groups while the teacher confers with students and meets with needs-based strategy groups. Finally, the teacher selects students to share and bring closure to the lesson. We will explore these components of workshop models for reading, writing, and math as well as variations of these components. We will share and analyze examples of teachers breaking free from rotations and implementing strategies for maximizing students' instructional time, especially independent work time. Participants will leave with plans for workshop structures and routines that will enable students to grow as readers, writers, and mathematicians.
