Academic Literacy Project- Grades 4-12 Day 1  


2-Day Series: Day 1 will focus on increasing student engagement and providing explicit vocabulary instruction.

ESU 10 Teaching & Learning staff will model strategies and share examples of how teachers are increasing student engagement and improving vocabulary instruction.  Participants will have the opportunity to experience and practice the strategies throughout the training.

Academic Literacy Project goals are to become familiar with and implement research-based literacy strategies that will increase student achievement for all learners. The 2-day training will be based on the following research-based recommendations:

    ·   Provide explicit vocabulary instruction
    ·   Provide direct and explicit comprehension strategy instruction
    ·   Provide opportunities for extended discussion of text meaning and interpretation
    ·   Increase student motivation and engagement in literacy learning

Day 1 is September 03, 2015 and Day 2 is January 26, 2016 - Dates are listed separately so you must register for both dates.
