Novel Coaching Intensives
Novel ELA Intensive Coaching
Our Novel ELA Intensive program is geared toward supporting leaders who are implentating the Novel MS ELA and Novel HS ELA curriculum. The intensive is a year-long partnership that include the following supports:
In the spring/summer before your Novel adoption, we engage in readiness, goal setting, systems design, and strategic planning to ensure a successful launch of your Novel ELA adoption; our comprehensive Summer Readiness Guide supports you all the way until Day 1 of school to ensure a strong launch to your Novel program.
Once school begins, we initiate weekly (or bi-weekly) curriculum-aligned coaching for your school/network/district literacy leaders, including:
Review of implementation artifacts (teacher video of lessons, videos of coaching meetings, student work)
30 min per week of tactical coaching
60 min per week of See/Name/Do leadership coaching centered on artifacts from Novel classrooms;
Quarterly full-day site visits alongside strategic priority planning;
Monthly stepbacks with network/district leaders to align on priorities and goals.
Seats reserved for your school for our annual Novel October Summit conference.
The weekly coaching provides rich opportunity for:
Assessment strategy and regular guided data cycles and aligned progress planning, all alongside regular student work study and response planning;
Creation of custom implementation artifacts specific to your school and context;
Regular teacher and leader video observation cycles from a Novel coach expert in the curriculum.
