Differentiated Literacy Coaching

Making sure that all students read well is a top priority for schools, and literacy coaches are playing an increasingly important role in the effort. Their challenge? To deliver the kind of instruction and support best suited to the teachers they work with and most likely to help those teachers improve the literacy of their students.

In Differentiated Literacy Coaching, Mary Catherine Moran presents a solution for meeting the diverse needs of literacy coaches and their charges. The heart of the book is an exploration of the Literacy Coaching Continuum, a series of professional learning formats that coaches can use singularly or in combination to design and deliver the most effective, most appropriate support:

* Collaborative Resource Management
* Literacy Content Presentations
* Focused Classroom Visits
* Coplanning
* Study Groups
* Demonstration Lessons
* Peer Coaching
* Coteaching
