Reading, Reading, and Reading Workshop for K-12

HAVE YOU EVER WONDERED?

• Have you ever wondered why students who struggle with reading are able to read a word in one line, but when the same word appears a few lines later act like they have never seen that word before?
• Have you ever wondered why some readers can get bigger, more phonetically complex words, but miss simple sight words like is or the?
• Have you ever wondered what is going on with students who have the “deer in headlights” look when you give them multi-step directions?
• Have you ever wondered what is going on when your students start to sound out a word then take their eyes off the page and just start guessing?
• Have you ever wondered why some students can be good readers but poor spellers?
• Have you ever wondered why your bright students seem to struggle so much with reading?

Whether you are a teacher looking for K-3 reading strategies, a Reading Specialist working with students from grades 2-10, or an administrator interested in learning about reading instruction and intervention approaches for grades 4-12, this workshop brings together cutting-edge research, new approaches and advances in technology to help students succeed at any level.
