Immediately following viewing of the video\, you are to begin implementing with your students. \nPart B contains a series of in-the-classroom student-facing videos to help you experience the routine — what it looks like and how it sounds. These videos can be view immediately after viewing Part A videos\, or they can be view after you have tried it on your own with your students\, giving you some great follow-through. Also\, you can “invite” Alice Nine to co-teach in your classroom–just stream a video to your students and Alice does the virtual teaching while you do the in-person monitoring and follow-through instruction. \nWHO SHOULD ENROLL?\n \nTeachers and parents who work with student writing at any level.

Alice Nine’s virtual\, on-demand workshop “Writing for STAAR” shows you how.  In the looming shadow of the redesigned STAAR\, a number of Texas educators approached Alice for insights into evidence-based writing instruction and assessment. Alice\, responded to their request and intently focused her lens on TEA’s released RLA STAAR documents. She dug deep. She deciphered\, deconstructed\, and demystified the test.  In this workshop\, Alice Nine shares her findings so you will know and understand the test — the changes and the demands and constraints of the SCR and ECR questions. And then\, she provides instructional models and ideas that you can use immediately in your classroom.\nParticipants will\n▸ Examine RLA STAAR blueprint for insights\n▸ Identify changes on the RLA STAAR writing rubrics\n▸ Analyze workload of the test\n▸ Identify and examine test questions that require writing in sentences\n▸ Examine the key indicators of high performance\n▸ Compare the extended constructed response to a traditional essay\n▸ Model a short constructed response\n▸ Model an extended constructed response \nJoin Alice Nine\, and you’ll return to your classroom better able to deliver systematic\, focused instruction for evidence-based response writing. \nSome videos can be used with students; stream Alice Nine into your classroom to co-teach with you. \nWATCH:  Module 8\, Video 1: Writing a Central Idea Statement \nWHO IS THE PRESENTER? \nFor over three decades Alice Nine\, a teacher of teachers\, has provided professional development to thousands of teachers across the United States.
