Substantial attention has been placed on supporting foundational reading and writing skills in the early grades, but many students still reach 4th grade and above without such skills securely in place. How do we engage older striving readers in instruction that builds student efficacy, motivation, and sense of self as competent and capable readers?
In this session, Student Achievement Partners will share the research and evidence base that defines efficacy and joy in literacy instruction. We will highlight specific, research-based instructional routines that can be implemented in any class to ensure that all students, especially those who have gaps in their foundational skills, build their competence and confidence as readers.
