Information on all CESA workshops

The Wisconsin Standards for Literacy in All Subjects, adopted in 2011, require all teachers, K-12, in every content area, to consider discipline-appropriate literacy techniques (also known as disciplinary literacy) with their students. Disciplinary literacy (DL) in social studies means that teachers are using thoughtfully chosen literacy techniques to teach students social studies objectives (not using social studies to learn literacy objectives). How do the WI Standards for Social Studies tie to DL?  Very well, in fact.  Learn connections between the two documents, resources for incorporating DL into classrooms and curriculum, and have time to review your existing curriculum for gaps. Audience: This session is designed for elementary teams involved in the social studies standards roll out.

In CESA 2, this workshop  is part of a series.  The additional workshops are on Dec 6 (Elementary Social Studies), Jan 31, 2019 (Integration of State Requirements), and March 7, 2019 (Civic Engagement, Reflection, and Planning for Year 2).
