As you review this week, successful balanced literacy programs are “balanced with a combination
of explicit instruction, small group and whole-class literacy activities, and independent reviewing
and writing opportunities” that might also include several instructional approaches (Kostelnik,
Soderman, Whiren, & Rupiper, 2019).
According to the article Guidance for educators using a balanced literacy program (ATTACHED) in a
truly balanced literacy program, how you teach is as important as what you teach (Strickland, n.d.,
para. 1). For this assignment you will present your plan for how you will incorporate a balanced
literacy approach in your classroom or school. Depending on your future career path, you can
choose who your intended audience is. You can present to your staff, parents, or even to the Board
of Education. You will present your plan in the form of a PowerPoint presentation. This assignment
can be added to your overall portfolio at the conclusion of your degree program.

using Present Me, Screencast, Snagit.

strategies for teaching students with limited English proficiency.
