Technology to Enhance the
Implementation of CCSS
Content Literacy Standards
Laurie Norris
Kris Krautkremer
What are we learning?This presentation will center on five literacy strategies:
• Golden Lines
• Marginalia
• Think alouds
• Read alouds
• Anticipation Guides
In what context?
Specific ways to use the iPads to implement these literacy strategies will be modeled through two lessons:
• 5th grade Ecology lesson
• Biology 1 Genetics lesson
Why use iPads?
The emphasis is using iPads to engage students in:
• providing evidence from text
• demonstrating fluency and comprehension
• and assisting with content-specific reading strategies.
What’s changed?
“Science educators must understand the
expectations set by the CCSS in regard to
science. These standards are not asking
science teachers to become ELA teachers;
however, we are being challenged to
apprentice students in the kinds of writing
with which scientists are engaged.”

Teachers have questions…..
• I don’t know any literacy strategies. Help!
• Where can I find the text to read with students?
• What’s the best way to go about this?
• I DON’T HAVE TIME TO TEACH READING AND WRITING!!
• I need some VERY specific things to do but I don’t know what they are!
Literacy Strategies
All the research regarding scientific literacy lines up with what
science teachers already know.

Start with the strategies that are MOST
similar to their work.
Anticipation Guides
Pre-reading strategy that helps
students:
•Prepare to read a text
•Activate prior knowledge
•Create a sense of anticipation
•Connect background
knowledge to new content

Golden Lines
Helps students:
•Practice identifying the
most important ideas
•Make connections
•Visualize or create non-
linguistic representations

Marginalia
Students interact with the text by:
• Inserting written notes
• Drawings
• Charts
• Alerts, thoughts and ideas in the margin
Oldest and most
common strategy.
Yet still one of the
most effective
methods to build
comprehension.

Read-AloudsA Read-Aloud is a planned oral reading of a book, article or excerpt from a text.
Read-Alouds:
• Prepare students for success on the SAT and ACT through increased exposure to rich language and academic vocabulary used in context
• Develop background knowledge
• Introduce new concepts
• Model fluency
• Activate close listening skills
• Expose students to text that may not be accessible to them otherwise

reading/read-aloud/
Think-Aloud for ComprehensionThink-Alouds are used to orally describe
what is going on inside the reader’s head to
make sense of the text.
They make the reader’s thinking visible when
combined with Marginalia.
During this time, teachers model use of
comprehension strategies and over time, these
become a natural part of a reader’s “inner voice” for
thinking.

BreakWe will transition into two groups after a 5 minute break.
We will have two 15 minute rotations.
Groups will rotate through:
•A 15 minute mini-lesson from 5th grade science on
rainforests
•A 15 minute mini-lesson from Biology 1A on genetics
Everyone will have the opportunity to experience both mini-
lessons.
Group 1- 5th
grade rainforest mini-lesson
Group 2- Biology 1A genetics mini-
lesson
Integrating Technology: Annotation - Storage and Sharing

Everything
Annotation:
• Notability (.99)
• DocAs (4.99)
• Explain Everything (2.99)
Easy to use apps for all levels. Import PDF documents to annotate, save and share.
Notability:
Students can upload a PDF document from a Dropbox (or like) account
OR from a QR code.
Notability:
Students can
annotate on the
document in Notability by
typing, writing, and highlighting right on it.
Notability:
Students can also add a photo or
record on the document.
Notability:
Students can upload their completed
document to any of these destinations.
Notability:
Teachers can make
comments in the same way and
send them back to the students.
Notability:
Students can likewise use these techniques among each other for powerful collaboration with forward-thinking technology - creating discussions not only with one class or one
school but with a global edge.
DocAs:
Students can upload a PDF document from a Dropbox (or like) account
OR from a QR code.
DocAs:
Students can annotate
on the document in
DocAs by typing, writing,
highlighting, adding a photo
or recording right on it.
DocAs:
Students can export
by mail or to a storage
cloud.
DocAs:
Teachers can create comments in a variety of ways and send back to
students.
DocAs:
The recording feature allows
for several recordings and
they can be moved
anywhere on the page.
DocAs:
Students can easily write or
draw. The magnification tool makes it
easy to see what you are doing
and allows you to place your writing
or drawing anywhere on the
page.
DocAs:
There are several types of papers and templates to choose from and
all your pages can be the same or
different.
Explain Everything:
Students can upload a PDF
document from any of these
storage clouds or from a QR
code.
Explain Everything:
Students can type, write,
highlight, add a photo and
record.
Explain Everything:
The main difference between Explain Everything and Notability
and DocAs is that EE captures each annotation, drawing and
recording in order. This makes for a dynamic interactive
lesson, activity or tutorial. EE offers more of a presentation or explanation style document.
Explain Everything:
Students can clearly view folders
when importing and exporting to
and from a Dropbox account
in Explain Everything.
Sharing and Storing:
• Totes m’ Notes (Free)
• Dropbox (Free)
• Box (Free)

Students can customize their folder covers and
save them on the shelf.
Totes m' Notes:
The inside of the folder displays a
"table of contents" on the left and new pages to select on
the right.
Totes m' Notes:
Once inside their new page, students can type, write and
customize their notes. There are even widgets to access for easy computations.
Totes m' Notes:
You can only share by email but a simple screen shot will place student work in photos and make an easy upload to
Dropbox.
Dropbox:
Dropbox allows for
easy organization of student work for
storing and sharing.
