Margaret Kilgo Workshops

Margaret Kilgo presents a research-based overview of the relationship between the state curriculum, the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) and Student Expectations (SEs), and the State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness (STAAR) and End-of-Course (EOC) tests in Reading, Mathematics, Science, and Social Studies, Grades K-12.  Kilgo covers the components that are critical for effectively teaching and assessing the TEKS/SEs to the depth and complexity of the STAAR/EOC/TAKS. The focus of these sessions is on teaching and assessing the curriculum, not on teaching to the test.

Social Studies Workshops: Integration of Literacy Skills
The 2012-2013 Social Studies DDD Workshops will include an integration of the critical reading comprehension skills from the 2009 ELAR TEKS/SEs for the Informational Text/Expository Text genre strand and Figure 19 inferences and summary tested on STAAR, Reporting Category 3, Gr. 3-8, and EOC Eng. I-III. These workshops will provide invaluable literacy training for integrating Social Studies content-driven reading comprehension with the Informational Text/Expository strand in the revised 2009 ELAR TEKS/SEs.
