2 Day Seminars
COURSE DESCRIPTION
Basic reading skills (phonological awareness, decoding, and fluency) are essential to academic achievement. Within each area, there are many sub-skills and patterns that may determine a specific direction for instruction. This 2-day seminar will look at each component of basic reading through the lens of assessment to help determine appropriate interventions. For each area of reading, there will be review of formal assessments (e.g., CTOPP-2, WIAT-III, KTEA-3, GORT-5) and informal assessment tools (e.g., aimswebPlus, teacher-generated assessments). After reviewing testing, case studies will be used to guide a discussion around developing long-term and daily lesson plans to address student needs.
