A small investment in your time can result in developing student literacy skills that will last a lifetime.

These strategies are based on the most current research and give educators the tools they need to implement the Common Core.
The workshop series consists of four instructional routines – Comprehension, Close Reading, Content Writing, and Argument Writing. Discounts are available for attending multiple sessions or having multiple teachers attend from the same district.
Each day consists of two day-long instructional workshop options. Attend one or both days.For more information and/or to register please click here.
