Does this sound like you?
Struggling trying to find the perfect reading intervention that will catapult your students from struggling to read to reading for pleasure? Are you trying to solve the puzzle as to why students with excellent reading fluency struggle with reading comprehension? Are at the end of your rope pulling resources together on a shoestring budget for meaningful reading intervention?
That all ends now!
No longer will your students shy away from reading, forget all they learned from hours of studying on the day of the test, the meltdown in the classroom from frustration, struggle with written expression, lost homework and so much more.
Once you understand the “why” and how to identify the root causes of learning differences your whole process of intervention will be crystal clear. In addition to learning the how and why of dyslexia and evaluation you will have the opportunity to learn treatment ideas that embrace everyday games, material, technology, low-tech, and hands-on methodology that you may already have in your classroom or may easily access.
You will leave this workshop with tools to take back to your students tomorrow!
