Level Up: Evidence Based Reading Intervention

I need to expand my reading teaching knowledge by completing Wilson Reading System Level II Certification and WRS Group Mastery to teach groups.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Kelly's classroom raised $3,260

This project is fully funded

My Project

I am requesting the gift of leveling up my reading instruction. Group Reading Interventions require an intense amount of skill to produce efficient results. I want to go to an advanced studies science of reading course that focusing on teaching groups. This will help me maximize my time with students so that everyone is learning at all times. Typically, intensive reading interventions work best when one on one, unless the teacher has advanced knowledge and techniques to facilitate and measure learning for groups of students. ALL of my students are years behind their peers. The Wilson Reading Program Level II certification will boost our classes reading levels with structured multi-sensory techniques that are evidence based. Wilson Reading is one of the best OG programs created. It works!
