Build strong writers from the sentence up.
Understanding the science of writing is fundamental to nurturing confident and capable writers. This workshop delves into the importance of teaching writing at the sentence level, offering strategies to embed writing instruction into all content areas.
Following feedback from previous events, we’ve expanded to a two-day symposium packed with elements to support your literacy leadership and implementation.
Whether you’re new to evidence-based reading instruction or highly experienced, these days offer something for everyone – an opportunity to delve deeply into practice, gain inspiration, and connect with the latest research.
