Fireside Chat: Building a Coherent Approach to Literacy in Your School or District
- District & School Leaders
- Classroom Teachers, Interventionists, & Specialists
- Literacy Coaches & Teacher Leaders
We invite school leaders and district wide decision makers to join us for a 1-hour fireside chat with Irene Fountas and Cindy Downend from the Center for Reading Recovery & Literacy Collaborative. Irene and Cindy will facilitate the discussion to help you think about building a coherent approach to high-quality literacy instruction across the grade levels in your school or district.
Learn the importance of building internal capacity within the school by developing coach or teacher leader expertise in literacy teaching and learning through the Literacy Collaborative. Irene and Cindy will also share the impact of this research-based literacy improvement model and explain the training process for coaches and teacher leaders.
The Literacy Collaborative Partnership provides a long-term, coherent approach to literacy teaching and learning.
