While following an explicit and systematic approach to your reading instruction, how can you help students who seem to get stuck on a particular skill? What can you do for students who “can’t blend?” What’s a good routine for students who are great at decoding but can’t read texts fluently?
In this free on-demand webinar, Dr. Julia Lindsey is back to share strategies for using research-based routines to meet students’ literacy needs, especially with small groups. Dr. Lindsey is a proud former elementary school teacher, foundational literacy expert, and author of Reading Above the Fray: Research-Based Routines for Developing Decoding Skills.
You’ll walk away with classroom routines that will help your readers get unstuck and build key foundational literacy skills so they can decode, comprehend, and enjoy what they read!
