LETRS for educators is an investment in teachers' literacy knowledge and professional practice. Teachers gain essential skills to master the fundamentals of literacy instruction required to apply and transform student learning.

LETRS is curriculum-agnostic professional learning that dives into the what, why, and how around how children learn to read. It is grounded in decades of research informed by experts in multiple fields. LETRS provides the knowledge and tools teachers can use with any quality reading program. Participants will learn why certain student struggle with reading, how to interpret assessment data to best support each student's individual needs, and which tools to use in which situations (using the curriculums and interventions teachers already have access to). This session will complete Volume 1 of 2 and focuses on Word Recognition, diving deeply into the brain, phonological awareness, phonics, orthography, and morphology.
 

Cost: $1,250 for CESA 8 CIA Member School Districts. $1350 for all others
