Adolescent Literacy in All Content Areas Day 1
Presented by Melissa Gill
Are your students struggling to tackle complex text? Are their written responses lacking critical information?
As the landscape of education evolves, upper grade educators across the nation are increasingly recognizing the critical importance of evidence-based literacy instruction. To support our learners effectively, it's essential to adopt best practices that align with the latest research. Are you ready to implement three low-prep, high-impact strategies across all content areas? Join us for a transformative professional learning experience with Explicit Instruction & Literacy Trainer Melissa Gill!
In this dynamic session, you'll engage in meaningful collaboration and networking while exploring best practices and practical strategies to enhance your instructional approach. Our focus will be on addressing the diverse needs of students, including multilingual (ML) learners and neurodivergent learners. We will dive deep into the Science of Reading and the Explicit Instruction framework pioneered by Dr. Anita Archer, equipping you with the tools and knowledge to meet the instructional needs of your upper grade students.
Don't miss this opportunity to elevate your teaching practices and make a lasting impact on your students' literacy development. Let's come together to share insights, discover effective strategies, and drive student success. Ready to transform your approach? Let's get started!
