#ILAchat: Key Techniques for Rigorous Literacy Instruction

By ILA Staff
 | Nov 07, 2016

ilachat 112016Educators often hear the words rigorous and frustration texts. Finding the right approach to help your students through challenging materials can be frustrating on its own. Join us Thursday, Nov. 10, at 8:00 p.m. ET when we will be joined by educators who challenge and champion their students.

Doug Lemov, managing director of Uncommon Schools, leads its Teach Like a Champion team, designing and implementing teacher training based on the study of high-performing teachers. He is the author of Teach Like a Champion 2.0 and coauthor of Practice Perfect.

Colleen Driggs is a director of professional development for the Teach Like a Champion team at Uncommon Schools. Prior to joining the Teach Like a Champion team, she was a middle school science and literacy teacher.

Erica Woolway is the chief academic officer for the Teach Like a Champion team at Uncommon Schools. She is a coauthor of Practice Perfect. Erica began her career in education as a kindergarten teacher and then worked as a school counselor and dean.

Together, Lemov, Driggs, and Woolway have written Reading Reconsidered, a guide for teachers who want to push their students to meet their potential while being sure to make them confident and successful.

During the #ILAchat, the three will share the tools and approaches they use in their classroom and give a sneak peek of their book. Be sure to follow #ILAchat and @ILAToday on Nov. 10 at 8:00 p.m. ET to join the conversation.
