This workshop is designed to efficiently deliver the background knowledge needed to successfully diagnose, group, and teach emerging and struggling readers.
Educators will leave the workshop with: an understanding of why students struggle with decoding and the impact this has on comprehension; tools and knowledge needed to effectively diagnose decoding issues in students of all ages; resources to group students successfully for instruction that will yield the greatest improvements, and teaching strategies to provide age/grade appropriate decoding instruction; and how to use student manipulatives to engage students and boost their achievement.
