COURSE DESCRIPTION

This is the first session of a two-part series on word-level reading. This first session will focus on how children learn to read words and why some children struggle. Participants will learn about what research has uncovered regarding how children identify words and efficiently remember them through a process of orthographic mapping. This allows them to instantly and effortlessly remember and retrieve them later. These findings will provide a foundation for effective instruction and intervention.

This is the first part of a two-part webinar series on word-level reading. Register for part two: Orthographic Mapping: Practical Classroom Applications.
