Science of Reading for Leaders

This is a similar offering to the 23-24 series, with new content now aligned to Ohio's SoR Modules.

Now offered in person at HCC in Loveland to be closer to the other side of our region.

Big ideas:

This professional development series builds knowledge and supports application to lead systems for school improvement rooted in:

1. Science of Reading to understand how reading develops and
2. Structured Literacy approach to reading instruction to best support all students
3. Implementation Science to support strong implementation of structured literacy instructional materials. ​

Participants will:​

• Build background knowledge of the Science of Reading and Structured Literacy​ to apply in their literacy leadership
• Learn specific classroom practice and instructional materials "look fors" to know what to select and support implementation of, as well as red flags for practices to deselect and discontinue
• Engage in implementation-focused action planning to drive strong implementation of structured literacy instructional materials
• Share and receive knowledge and experiences from local schools and districts​

Educators in leadership roles such as:

• Curriculum directors
• Special education directors
• Building administrators
• Coaches
• Teacher leaders

The content is focused on knowledge-building to improve systems at the district and school level that support Structured Literacy instruction. Therefore, it is highly encouraged that the team attending includes individuals who have decision-making capacity within the school or district.
