Join Jan Richardson as she brings her years of experience as a reading specialist, Reading Recovery teacher leader, best-selling author, and national literacy consultant to share best practices in providing small group reading instruction, a critical component of a balanced literacy program. In this two-part series, Dr. Richardson will demonstrate how to use student assessment data to plan targeted instruction to meet the individual needs of pre-A, emergent, early, and transitional readers. Special emphasis will be given to how phonics and comprehension strategies are explicitly and systematically taught during small group lessons, so that students have the opportunity to immediately transfer this knowledge during reading and writing. Participants will explore a wealth of powerful strategies to refine and energize their instructional delivery, in both face-to-face and virtual settings.
Workshop participants are strongly advised to have available a copy of Dr. Richardson's professional book, The Next Step Forward in Guided Reading.
