Are you ready to roll up your sleeves and jump into the art and science of teaching reading and writing? Let’s explore the body of research surrounding a structured literacy approach and, more importantly, how to implement these best practices in your classroom
By the end of the day, you will learn: • What the current research says about reading and writing instruction in primary classrooms. • Reading and writing activities you can begin using the next day to easily turn your classroom into an active learning hub! • How to support all learners by focusing on prevention instead of intervention. • How to easily gather data to inform your instruction. • How can you engage your students in developmentally appropriate activities so that every student feels successful?
Structured literacy does not need to be dull! Imagine equipping your students with the keys to literacy using engaging and effective methods. Join me as I hope to reignite your passion for learning!
Who Should Attend? Kindergarten, 1st Grade, 2nd Grade Teachers, Administrators and Support Staff
