This course will affirm the value of music educators, physical education educators, library media specialists, school counselors and other educators who don’t teach reading directly of their importance in a student learning to read. In addition, the course will cover the requirements in HB 1388.

This course will provide participants with a framework for writing instruction that can be used in all grade levels and content areas- including elementary, and middle/high school content area educators.

 

Because the approach taught in this course relies on mentor texts and explicit instruction, this will contrast with a writer's workshop and process model. This course will combine online, synchronous meetings, face-to-face experiences, and asynchronous practice submissions. Prior to each session, there will be required reading from the provided text.
