What is READ339?

RE@D339 is an initiative to approach the teaching of reading at middle school IS 339 in a more comprehensive manner. In addition to creating a Google Site with a host of resources for teachers, we have been running professional development on employing pre-, during-, and post-reading strategies in ELA, math, social studies, and science lessons. This has involved modeling, collaborating on lesson plans, and videoing exemplar lessons.
Stay tuned as we ramp up this activity for 2009-2010.

A Great Resource for Teaching Reading

Here's another site that I'd like to add a plug for:
http://www.schools.manatee.k12.fl.us/ITsisemore/reading

From:
"an instructional technology specialist in Manatee County, Florida...[who] spent 27 years as a high school English teacher...[and has] created a site of resources for reading in primary and secondary. It's not a wiki, but it does provide valuable resources."
