Unlocking the world of reading: A comprehensive workshop 1-Day Virtual Super Workshop

The Science of Reading has provided a body of research that explains how individuals learn to read and best practices for reading instruction. This workshop will synthesize that evidence, break-down why some students have challenges learning to read, discuss specific strengths and stretches that students with ASD may present with, and present research-backed instruction that teachers can incorporate into their classroom to support reading development for ALL students.
Audience: This training is directed toward employees of BC school districts and independent schools. This includes teachers, paraprofessionals, and other educational staff supporting students with ASD at any grade level (K-12) in developing their social, academic, and adaptive skills.
