Anchin Center runs Understanding the Science of Reading - 2022 Fall Session
Fall 2022 Session Dates: September 5 - October 14, 2022
This professional development course was designed for classroom teachers to explore the science of reading and developmental models of reading.
Facilitator Margaret Krause, Ph.D., focused on phonological/phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary development, comprehension, and foundational, inclusive literacy practices are central topics that were explored throughout the 6-week session. Through the exploration of these topics, teachers considered implications for explicit, systematic literacy instruction and multisensory literacy interventions for children with decoding difficulties, dyslexia, and broader reading challenges.
The goal of this course was to provide a platform for practicing teachers to explore flexible and skillful use of developmentally appropriate instructional strategies for planning inclusive, responsive, and culturally relevant instruction for all students.
This course was delivered in an asynchronous, online platform over 6 weeks (40 hours). Course modules were self-paced to accommodate for flexible learning.
