Professional Learning Goal

To build state-level capacity to provide building-level support for Reading First implementation

To evaluate data from Reading First efforts

To build state-level capacity to use research to inform practice within and beyond Reading First

Year 1 PL Activities RCs built knowledge of research and instruction

in the areas of Phonemic Awareness, Phonics, Fluency, Vocabulary, and Comprehension (You can revisit these sessions through the GPB tapes)

RCs redelivered study groups to LCs, who redelivered to teachers

RCs built PL skills through video and confidential feedback

Year 2 PD Activities RCs worked with Architects on the design of PL

presentations RCs presented multiple grade-level-specific

jigsaw study groups to LCs; LCs delivered to RCs

Year 3 PL Activities Architects designed a menu of modules for RCs

to select from, prepare for, and deliver to Cohort 1 coaches

Coaches were charged with leading grade-level team meetings to plan for differentiated instruction on their own
