Can I purchase Lesson Maps for my new ELA adoption?In the past Ashlock Consulting developed and licensed for use Lesson Maps to go with core program materials in school districts. Our English Language Arts Priority Plans Course has replaced this product. This Course walks participants through the process of developing grade level ELA Priority Plans. The plans provide all of the support the Lesson Maps did and more, but districts have the opportunity to make decisions about which elements from the course they wish to include in their plans. The process participants use to create these documents deepens their knowledge of effective implementation and gets buy-in for grade level use. Most school districts use their instructional materials for 7-15 years, so planning this part of the instructional day is critical! Through our course, participants will be shown how to make grade level plans that: • Prioritize research-based pieces of instruction from your current instructional materials. • Provide realistic suggestions with regard to the pacing of instruction. • Provide a Priority Standards Map for reading and writing. • Provide Exit Ticket assessments connected to literature and informational standards. • Provide a plan for Tier 2 comprehension and vocabulary instruction using current instructional materials connected to priority standards. • Layer on our Templates for Effective Instruction for explicit implementation of phonological awareness and phonics instruction. • Layer on our Reading Strategy and Skill Resource for explicit implementation of vocabulary and comprehension instruction. • Provide reminders for teachers to engage all students in instruction and include collaborative discussion in appropriate places through their ELA block. • Provide prompts for teachers to use the Gradual Release of Responsibility Model (I Do, We Do, Y'all Do, You Do) with literature and informational standards. • Provide Practice Sets using the Templates for Effective Instruction at the beginning and end for each reading block. • Direct teachers to provide a 15-20 minute Practice Reading block for differentiated time in text. For more information see our Catalog description for our English Language Arts Priority Plans.
