District Wide Information

Welcome back to school!

Watch for information about the January Media Info Bits Live! sessions being held next Monday, January 11, 2010.

I've added a couple of new websites to Websites to check out! on the left side of the blog. The first site is AdLit.org: Adolescent Literacy Resources for Parents and Educators of kids in grades 4-12. This site illustrates the importance of literacy instruction in grades 4-12 through reading strategies that help students with various types of text they encounter in content area classes.

The other sites that I've added are "sister sites" to AdLit.org. Colorincolorado.org is a bilingual site for families and educators of English Language Learners. Reading Rockets is focused on teaching younger readers to read and helping learners who struggle with reading and learning. LDonline.org is a website on learning disabilities and ADHD. This site works in association with the National Joint Committee on Learning Disabilities and is an educational service of public television WETA in Washington, D.C.
