this exciting opportunity to learn how to improve writing and reading
instruction through a process-based workshop approach. Jessica Martin

facilitate large group sessions. Small group sections will be lead by
their colleagues and local expert teacher leaders to provide both
beginning and advanced participants with the essential elements of
effective, research-based writing instruction.
Participants will: Broaden their knowledge of the most current research and the best practices in reading instruction. Learn manageable steps for introducing and strengthening reading workshop & components of balanced literacy routines and traditions in their classrooms. Explore new units of study that match the soon to be adopted Common Core State Standards (CCSS). Imagine possibilities for using each component of balanced literacy. Learn ways to match readers to leveled texts. Create tools to differentiate instruction for students with special learning needs. Study explicit techniques for supporting English Language Learners.
