This session invites secondary educators to bridge the gap between reading and writing standards by embedding a high-impact protocol from WestEd’s Reading Apprenticeship into literary analysis instruction. Participants will unpack key Reading (6–12 RL/RI) and Writing (6–12 W.1 and W.2) standards to better understand their interconnected nature.

Through guided close-reading and evidence-gathering routines, attendees will collaboratively design lesson sequences that move students from initial textual interpretation to structured, argument-driven essays. Through hands-on modeling and peer collaboration, educators will leave with ready-to-implement strategies that weave reading comprehension and writing skills into a seamless instructional flow, ensuring students can effectively communicate their analysis of complex texts.
