2019 Workshop Talk | 01:02:35 | K-6, Student Products & Services, Literature
Summary
Why do some students struggle to read? Where do you begin to identify the difficulty? How do you examine student written work and oral reading to determine the type of difficulty? How do you assist a student who can read but struggles to comprehend what he reads? How do you know if the program and methods you use contribute to student reading difficulties? This workshop will answer these questions and provide practical tools for observing, evaluating, and helping struggling readers. Reference charts will be provided for grammar teachers, administrators, and parents.
