Tips and Techniques to Improve Student Learning

Using TELLS: Three ideas - Pat Wilson, Adelaide Elementary

1. I "blew up" the chart to make a wall chart.

2. A para-professional made construction paper bookmarks of TELLS

3. I identified the 5 letters with students five fingers so we wouldn't forget any element.

This idea was submitted by Pat Wilson, Basic Skills teacher at Adelaide. For more information, call Pat at (253)954-2346.

If you have a tip or technique that you would like to share with other teachers related to successful literacy instruction in the classroom, simply write out your idea and send it to Mark Jewell at ESC, or e-mail Mark-Jewell@fwsd.wednet.edu.

The ideas will become part of Federal Way Public School's web-based instructional resources and may be featured in district press releases that illustrate Federal Way staff's application of the literacy training. Full credit will be given in each publication.
