This course is appropriate for educators at the elementary level, as well as those working with older students who require remediation in foundational reading skills

Upon completion, participants will be able to:

Understand key components of reading theory and research and how they inform instructional practices
Recognize ways to identify gaps in students’ foundational reading skills and how to utilize this information to improve student outcomes
Implement strategies aimed at improving students’ phonemic awareness, phonics and decoding
Assist students in applying learned foundational skills as they begin building reading fluency
