Are you looking for the most effective ways to better help your students who may have dyslexia to be more successful readers through specially designed instruction? In this seminar by Nancy Hannagan, you'll learn the most up-to-date information on dyslexia along with a wealth of proven strategies and resources designed to support greater success for struggling readers including students with dyslexia. The focus will be on best practices for strengthening the reading skills of students with dyslexia through specially designed instruction. Gain a wealth of practical strategies for boosting reading skills and increasing students' motivation to read. If you are looking for research-based strategies that can easily be implemented into your current classroom instruction, this engaging one-day seminar will provide best practices for successful specially designed reading instruction. By the end of the seminar, you will leave with dozens of practical, effective strategies and an extensive digital resource handbook to help you reach all struggling readers in your classroom.
As teachers, we strive to provide the very best reading instruction for all the students in our classroom, especially for those who are struggling to read. This daunting task faces us every day, and we wonder what we can do after we've exhausted our bag of tricks, and some of our students continue to struggle with reading. We know there must be a better way to meet the specific needs of our struggling readers, especially those who have or may have dyslexia. We also know that when a student in our class has been diagnosed with a learning disorder, Specially Designed Instruction is the key to their success.
During this unique one-day seminar, I will share many helpful ways to better meet the needs of your students who have or may have dyslexia. You will learn practical screening tools and discover how to incorporate proven instructional strategies into your current specially designed instruction, and ways to enhance your current practice without having to reinvent anything! We will also discuss specific ways to improve all your students' motivation to read, including students who are currently experienced reading roadblocks.
My goal is to provide you with practical techniques and strategies that are proven to be effective for struggling readers, including those with dyslexia. I would like to personally invite you to join me in building your tool kit of strategies to assist your students in reaching their reading goals. I look forward to meeting you at the seminar!
P.S. As an experienced educator, I understand the unique challenges you face daily in your instruction. This seminar is designed to give you and your students with dyslexia a clear pathway to reading success!
