Course Description:
Literacy matters across all content.  Robin Fogarty knows that if kids can’t, won’t or don’t read, nothing else matters!  We are not all reading teachers, but we are all teachers of literacy.  The ability to read and write, to speak and listen, to use language to communicate; the ability to read about history, scientific discoveries and mathematical theories, to critique great literature and to debate a telling point; the ability to speak eloquently, to hear and to be heard, to write with clarity… these are academic performances embraced by all teachers.  Join this session and begin the conversation about literacy across the content.  Leave with strategies for guided reading, in both narrative and informational text, that every teacher can use to support literacy.
