WEBINAR: Boost Student Engagement and Motivation In Your Classroom
Thursday, March 13, 2014 @ 2:00 PM – 3:00 PM PST
Students who are engaged during literacy instruction benefit from enhanced learning and memory as well as increased motivation for reading intervention and learning. This webinar will address ways to increase student engagement and motivation in your classroom.
Why Does it Work for Intervention Students?
Because the core of Reading Horizons framework only requires students to remember seven rules that can be applied to the majority of words in the English language, it is easy for students to remember. This, paired with the multi-sensory nature of the program, is the reason students with learning disabilities and special needs, as well as ESL students, can grasp the program more readily than alternative interventions.
The number of decoding rules is significantly lower than even the closest competitive product – making it the most accessible to at-risk students.
