FoRT Live Prep (Virtual)

This is not just a “how to pass the test” course! If you have taken the FoRT once, twice, or more and still need support, we invite you to join us for these empowering learning sessions. The class includes targeted instruction in the assessed area, time to collaborate and process content with Amy & classmates, and time to ask clarifying questions and work through sample problems together. Class preparation includes answering test items and reading articles prior to the Zoom meeting. At the end of this course, you will be ready to analyze the test questions and respond as a truly diagnostic teacher should. Embedded into the five days: essential information on a variety of assessments and analyzing student responses to determine the next best instructional step. ADDED Bonus: You will leave this course better prepared to support the students who need you to be the best reading teacher possible.
