Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
All students can benefit from being taught phonics in a systematic and structured way. The IMSE training provides training in a science of reading-based pedagogy that supports all students. It dives deep into strategies and structures that can be used to teach phonology, encoding, and decoding during whole-group, small-group, and tiered intervention reading lessons. I need to provide my students with hands-on, research-based strategies during their reading instruction.
My project would provide professional development in Orton-Gillingham’s structured literacy approach that is offered by the Institute of Multi-Sensory Education.
Being OG trained would allow me to provide my students with quality reading instruction and help them become proficient readers before the third grade.
