Considerations:
– ELA; more than individual
presentations, emphasize teams,
groups, pairs
– ELA & Math; demonstrate use of
technology
– All subjects; use similar verbs
whenever possible
Literacy in Science & Technical
Subjects: CTE Applications
TOM TORLAKSON
State Superintendent
of Public Instruction
*
*
