WEBINAR TITLE:
SharpReading Stage 3: "The Foundation for Effective, Systematic Comprehension Instruction"

We believe there needs to be a bit push in the area of Comprehension Instruction now that the essential aspects of Structured Literacy have been established in many NZ schools.

WEBINAR CONTENT: 
1. SharpReading Theory - the research behind our approach to comprehension instruction.

• The need to address comprehension skills before teaching strategies

• Our Developmental progression for comprehension which avoids cognitive overload and provides clear, step-by-step direction for teachers and students.

• The need for Independent Practice so that the amazing brain can develop processing automaticity.

2. The Explicit Teaching Routine - Explain, Model and Guided Practice of Unpacking Sentences. Opportunity for you to practise this in the webinar.

3. The Independent Practice Routine - 80% of the students lesson time involves Independent Practice where you can monitor how their brains are processing information and then provide tweaks to their learning. We will model and practise this routine during the webinar.

SPECIAL OFFER - FREE  IN-SCHOOL FOLLOW-UP
We are so adamant that good PD must include one-on-one follow-up in the classroom, that we are providing one free 45-minute session for webinar attendees. This will be arranged with you and will be customised to meet your needs - me modeling the teaching with your students, team teaching, or you teach and get feedback - any or all of the above (normally $150 for this session).
