Teaching Reading
Develop skilled readers through word recognition and language comprehension
Reading is a thrilling but complex process. To help unpack this process for PreK—6th grade teachers and instructional coaches, Douglas Fisher, Nancy Frey, and Diane Lapp brought you The Teaching Reading Playbook, which merges current research across different strands of reading with practical classroom application and brings clarity to teaching reading to every child. Now, bring your learning to a deeper level with Teaching Reading professional learning.
What You'll Learn
During the Teaching Reading workshop series, you’ll use the 13 modules within the playbook to support you as you develop skilled readers by examining two critical aspects: word recognition and language comprehension. Word recognition includes strands such as phonological awareness, sight word recognition, and a systematic approach to phonics and decoding. Language comprehension includes strands such as vocabulary, morphological awareness, and verbal reasoning. In the Teaching Reading professional learning opportunity, you’ll
- Select the best activities to support students in grades K–6 to learn letters and sound relationships.
- Provide developing readers with the most effective oral, written, and reading experiences.
- Explore new research findings from neuroscience, cognitive science, and child development.
- Clear up confusions about phonics progressions, reading fluency, morphology, text selection, grammar, and more.
- Develop background knowledge, vocabulary, and comprehension instruction.
- Gain strategies that will help students attain deeper levels of comprehension by applying Theory of Mind and other cutting-edge ideas.
