CESA 4 would like to offer you a chance to learn more about the use of assistive technology for reading and writing to help your struggling students with the Common Core Standards. Luckily for special education, Common Core actually includes the use of Assistive Technology to help our struggling readers and writers maintain these new rigorous standards. Are you all looking for a text reader, screen shot reader or word prediction to help your students get ready for digital text and testing in 2014? Districts seem to be jumping on getting some of this in place so the learning curve of new standards and technology is not so great on our students in 2014. Our students are really working with Common Core by showing evidence while writing, working on typing skills, and using academic vocabulary – what a change this year! You are probably realizing what a big change this is going to mean for our special education students. Join us for an hour on February 13 at 2:45 to see SOLO (a literacy suite) and Snap&Read (a screen shot reader) and/or on February 28th from 11 to noon to see Start to Finish (middle school/high school content written at 2nd to 5th grade readability).
