Science of Reading Train-the-Trainer Workshop (formerly Reading Reconsidered)

Join the Teach Like a Champion Team to learn our most up-to-date guidance on reading and writing instruction. This practice-intensive workshop provides instructional leaders with materials and guidance to deliver high quality training on literacy instruction and provides teachers with tools to implement research-based literacy instructional practices with their students, both with the goal of driving literacy results in schools.

This workshop is designed to help teachers and leaders learn more about high quality literacy instruction based on the Science of Reading and Learning. As part of the two-day training, facilitators will share research related to fluency, background knowledge, attention, belonging, and deliberate practice, as well as support participants in considering practical applications of this research that will support student literacy achievement.

YOU WILL GAIN:

An understanding of a variety of instructional techniques based on scientific research that support pupils in becoming confident, skilled and independent readers

A framework for analyzing text complexity and selecting texts beyond Lexile levels

An understanding of leading effective Professional Development and practice for teachers

WE WILL ANALYZE AND PRACTICE:

Ways of Reading—How to maximize the amount of reading students do and how to balance the use of shared oral and silent reading to create joyful cultures of reading and belonging.

Knowledge Building and Tools—How to build background knowledge in literacy classes and leverage it to support comprehension and analysis

Vocabulary—How to effectively teach new vocabulary and reinforce vocabulary acquisition during reading

Writing for Reading—How to leverage the synergies between three types of academic writing to prepare students to be excellent writers as well as readers

Close Reading and Text Complexity-- How to support students in establishing and analyzing meaning in texts that are sufficiently rigorous and complex
