Words, Words, Words: Vocabulary Development & Advanced Decoding |
June 10-12, 2009 |
This Orton-Gillingham based workshop picks up where basic word attack leaves off. As students progress they are introduced to textbooks filled with longer, multisyllabic words. Eventually, the caliber and complexity of that reading increases substantially. Even with effective basic phonics instruction, readers are often unable to handle both the increased quantity of text and its complexity. Participants examine the origins of our language, learn about characteristics of the major languages of influence, look over roots and affixes, and study some effective tools for instructing students in this valuable area. Tools such as these help the student whose word decoding abilities have plateaued to move to the next level -- for decoding, vocabulary development, and ultimately comprehension. 3 days - 2 PLUs - 8:30 am - 3:30 pm Cost: $325.00
