Read Write Tech

A custom design for my classroom workflow. I teach high school and my students have been extremely receptive to the waiting room (I cut them out on thick cardstock) and my workflow signs. I printed the workflow sign and posted it in multiple places around the room. This has been a game-changer for managing one-on-one conferencing during classtime and building independence for my most reluctant students.

This can work for 7-12th grade ELA classes so that students can track and compare topics across multiple texts. I print a copy for each student each day that we read. They keep a folder filled with their notes for each chapter or scene that we read. If they have anassigned reading for homework that night, they can add their notes to the appropriate note page. It helps for keeping track of details across longer texts, or if you are using multiple smaller texts as supplemental reading.
