Description | | myON Educator Resources is sponsoring a professional growth training at ESU with Dr. Tim Rasinski. During this training topics will include Greek and Latin Roots and Close Reading with Paired Text. Greek and Latin Roots- Keys to Building Vocabulary Approximately 90% of the academic words in English are derived from Latin and Greek morphemes, over half of the multisyllabic words in English have origins in Latin and Greek, and when new concepts are added to English, scientists and scholars look to Latin and Greek morphemes to name them. Knowing just one Latin or Greek root can help readers understand 25 or more words. In this presentation, Dr. Timothy Rasinski will make the case for making Latin and Greek morphemes an integral part of the school English Language Arts curricula, from grade 1 through 12. Close Reading with Paired Texts Recent ELA standards that from the earliest stages of literacy development, students need exposure to informational and narrative texts. Moreover, recent standards have emphasized the importance of close reading, or engaging in multiple readings for different purposes. In this presentation, Dr. Rasinski will argue that close reading can best be taught with relatively brief paired texts, texts of different genre that have similar content. The pairing of texts allows for deep analyses such as compare and contrast, vocabulary development, and reciprocal teaching. Moreover, Rasinski will argue that close reading of paired texts provides an authentic springboard to word study, fluency development, and writing. |
