These components will complement, expand and enrich any literacy or language arts program already in place. Instruction will link to specific Common Core Standards in Reading and Language Arts.

· Teach “sight words” using word origins that make sense to all learners.
· Learn how to teach affixes from kindergarten and up.

Looking for something to help your older students who are struggling with decoding and fluency? Come join us for this powerful, hands-on, two-day training and leave with the practical knowledge and tools necessary to identify, group and teach adolescent struggling readers.
Why teach decoding to older students?
Students who struggle with reading most often have decoding difficulties, no matter their age. Many older students experience undiagnosed decoding difficulties that hamper their academic achievement. They don’t have the skills necessary to accurately read the multi-syllabic words that drive their content area reading. When their basic reading skills are missing or weak they often misread, guess, or skip words they don’t know.
