Teachers Who Use these Methods See Measurable Improvement in Their Students’ Reading Abilities... even during COVID-19!

During the 2020-2021 school year, 8 teachers shared their pre- and post-test results using the same types of methods you’ll learn in this webinar. Their score averages are shown here.

As you can see, students made incredible growth, despite the fact that many of the classrooms were forced to go virtual or hybrid due to the COVID-19 pandemic!

These 8 teachers had used the program with their Kindergarten, 1st grade, or 2nd grade students for the majority of the school year. One of the participants was a homeschool teacher. The other 7 teachers worked in schools located across the United States and Canada.

Public, private, and charter schools were represented among the classrooms in the study.

Two of the 7 classrooms were located in schools where over 50% of students are classified as coming from low-income backgrounds.

In this webinar, you’ll learn 7 powerful routines to improve your students’ engagement and results. Register today to get a printable professional development certificate and example activity absolutely you can try right away.

Do you know what the research says about effective phonics instruction in K-2?

If not, don't worry - you don't have to bury yourself in a textbook! I'm going to break the research down for you in this free webinar.

There's no question that the past couple of years have been difficult for everyone, especially teachers and students. Pandemic-time learning has left some students with learning gaps that will need to be addressed. But others may still be right on track. So how do you work on catching struggling students up while still supporting your other learners?

Of course, our students always have unique needs - but sometimes differentiating for them becomes challenging and overwhelming. In this webinar, I'll give you tips for how to differentiate with ease, support learners at all levels, and put research-based techniques to work for your students. Best of all, these routines aren't complicated! You'll be ready to implement them as soon as the workshop is over.
