Session Dates

Friday March 03, 2023 8:30 AM - 9:30 AM - Webinar

Closed

What do findings from cognitive neuroscience mean for early reading instruction? Most importantly, what are the concrete implications for classroom practice? These questions will be at the heart of this session, which will focus on the neuroscience behind early reading and spelling development - and how to apply findings to classrooms. This session will be interactive, and participants will leave with actionable insights, frameworks, and methods to apply in their work with early readers and with teachers of reading.
