Literacy Literacy Design Design
CollaborativCollaborativee
The Literacy Design Collaborative (LDC) offers a fresh approach to incorporating literacy into middle and high school content areas. LDC is a community of educators providing a teacher-designed and research-proven framework, online tools, and resources for creating literacy-rich modules of instruction across content areas. This is drastically different than past, less structured notions of “adding” reading and writing when possible to the teaching of content.
Goals of LDCGoals of LDC• To engage students in reading, comprehending,
analyzing, interpreting, and responding to complex texts
• To align assignments to the CCSS and to promote collaboration
• To help teachers personalize learning so that every student can master the CCSS
• To ensure that all students can be college and career ready

Defining the SkillsDefining the Skills• Each skill required is defined.• There are multiple skills in each
cluster.• Clusters 1-4 are completed in
order.• The Content Cluster is embedded
throughout the literacy clusters.

How will students be taught to succeed on the teaching task?•Teachers establish the instructional plan – and instructional ladder – to teach students the skills necessary to succeed on the task•Students are taught each skill through a “mini-task”•Mini-tasks connect across the 2-4 weeks to lead students to completing the task

If you were climbing a ladder, you wouldn’t want to miss a rung.
This is also true in teaching students how to create a final product

1.Clarifying and sharing learning intentions and criteria for success2.Engineering effective discussions, questions and learning tasks that elicit evidence of learning.3.Providing feedback that moves learners forward.4.Activating students as the owners of their own learning.5.Activating students as instructional resources for one another.

These five key ingredients are designed to ensure that students are engaged in a
productive struggle with mathematics rather than on the receiving end of a lecture
