The Science of Reading: Day 1 & 2 Bundle (Discount!)

The Science of Reading: Day 1 & 2 Bundle (Discount!)

Day one of this workshop is designed to provide participants with an overview of reading science (or “The Science of Reading,” as it is widely known) and how it applies to their instructional spaces.  Research will be shared and discussed, but the majority of the workshop will focus on pedagogy and practical applications for embedding SoR-aligned literacy practices and learning opportunities into everyday instruction.  The workshop will be gentle, accommodating, and responsive to teacher needs. Day two of this workshop serves as a closer look into the components of reading and writing development.  Participants will engage more deeply with how the sciences of reading and writing transfers to teaching and learning.  Evidence-based classroom strategies and frameworks for instruction will be shared, and participants will have opportunities to reflect, apply, and plan.

Note: This session is a discounted bundle for both days! Lunch will be provided.
