    1. That will be a choice to take lesson plan formats and customize one based on your needs.

  3. Literacy can be supported with technology in a variety of ways. In addition to the suggestions above we also have several dictation apps on the ipads that would support fluency goals.

    As a district we also have purchased the Scienceflix database that would provide more options for nonfiction reading/listening. The link can be found under the HSD Resource folder on the homepage.

  5. What literacy activities can we use to all support the wide range of readers in the classroom, from far below grade level to far above grade level, so that each learner can maximize his/her potential?

  6. . I want guided reading lessons that are deeper leveled thinking and meeting the reading needs of my students. I also want to know what books to read with the students to meet these needs Misty
