NEW RESOURCES
HPISD has developed two new resources for educators and parents to use as guides for ELA instruction.
New HPISD Literacy Framework
This is an incredible resource for educators and parents alike! The new Framework will help parents better understand what a typical ELA block looks like for their child’s grade (decoding, spelling, vocabulary, comprehension, fluency, writing, etc.).
ELA Family Curriculum Guide
This allows parents to see what students are learning at school during each grading period. The Guide also provides ideas about how to provide support at home.
HPISD is in the process of creating a new Response to Intervention (RTI) Framework that is currently in draft form. This resource is for families with students who are given instruction for reading intervention, dyslexia intervention etc. This document will address how teachers identify specific needs of individual students and how they choose an intervention to match those needs. The document will also detail how teachers will use assessments to track progress on a graph at a minimum of every two weeks to ensure the intervention is effective. The current HPISD Literacy Framework has a section covering some of these subjects beginning on p 50.
Board members encourage staff and parents to use these new resources as guides when discussing ELA instruction, answering questions, and supporting students.
