According to experts in the field, reading and language arts skills and abilities are best acquired when students are actively engaged in their own learning. This practical, highly-engaging workshop will show you how to do just that: actively engage students in learning to read at the lower grades, and reading to learn at the upper grades.

The content is structured around the standards for teaching reading and language arts. The methodology for teaching those standards comes from our 20 strategies that take advantage of the way all brains learn best. By the time the workshop is over, you will have experienced how to learn vocabulary by drawing it, role playing it, and singing it, along with how to learn comprehension skills through the use of graphic organizers, visualization, and storytelling.
