Models of Reading: ​ Engines for Understanding​

Wednesday, October 16, 2024
10:00am
No cost

Our journey to becoming literacy ambassadors and change-makers for our children, teachers, and schools begins here. We’ll explore three models of reading. Models help make challenging content easier to understand and remember. We’ll also learn about the goal of reading instruction, which is comprehension, all the pieces that need to be in place to become efficient and effective readers and the related vocabulary.​ All aboard!​

LEARNING TARGETS​
Explain three models of reading to guide understanding​
Describe the goal of reading​
Learn the vocabulary to describe the important and foundational components of learning to read​
