One outcome of B.C.S.L.I will be the collaborative designing of units and lesson using enabling texts that are cause-based and build upon students native genius. The goal is to implement these lessons during the summer reading clinic. To ensure broader access to these ideas, concepts, and themes, Wayne RESA and Oakland Schools are committed to continuing to support teachers and with students throughout the traditional academic year.
We have built some tools to facilitate your planning, but we believe that you are the experts of your school and community and we trust you to make key decisions that will best work for your context.

Reading Clinic Objectives:
Students will read texts that span the social and natural sciences.
Increase the daily volume of texts read by students.
Build textual lineages.
Create outlets and environments for students to share texts in writing.
Engage students in literacy collaborative with cause-based readings.

We trust you to make the best decisions for your school and context, and we now that you have funds of knowledge that you're bringing with you!
We're committed to giving you feedback along the way. We're in this together!

"When a human being becomes suddenly conscious of the tremendous powers lying latent within him, when from the puzzled contemplation of a half-known self, he rises to the powerful assertion of self, conscious of its might, then there is loosed upon the world possibilities of good or of evil that make men pause."
--W.E.B DuBois
"Equity is teaching and lerning that is centered on justice, liberation, truth, and freedom. . . You cannot talk about true justice, liberation, truth, and freedom without talking about anti-racism."
-- Gholdy Muhammad
