In-person Workshop

Workshop 2: Deepening knowledge of content through improved reading practices and vocabulary instruction.

Do your students never read the texts, don't know the content and then struggle with writing the assessments?

Do you spend your time trying to differentiate the work and preparing scaffolds for students to support them in understanding your content?

In this workshop you will master Close Reading techniques and Vocabulary Instruction to:

  1. Reduce your workload and exhaustion through mastering these two lesson activities.
  2. Ensure your students can succeed in their assessments by knowing the texts well and have the language to write about them.
  3. Differentiate without any extra work or effort on your behalf.

What to expect:

  • Receive 1:1 support and feedback to apply your knowledge in the session.
  • Master the skill of preparing Close Reading activities for your students of any ability.
  • Learn about Vocabulary Instruction, what kinds of words you should be selecting and the classroom activities you can implement immediately.
  • You will spend time preparing your vocabulary instruction and close reading lesson activities in the session.
