S26-04112 HOW THE BRAIN LEARNS TO READ: PRACTICAL TOOLS FOR EVERY CLASSROOM — Grades K-5

Krystina White - krystinawhitescope@gmail.com

3 Credits - Inservice - June 24 — August 15

This asynchronous virtual course explores how the brain processes reading and how cognitive science informs reading development and instruction. Educators will deepen their understanding of how students learn to read, what causes reading difficulties, and how research-based strategies can support all learners. Practical application of theory to instructional design will be a focus throughout the course. Optional Google Meet will be offered Week 5 to support participant discussion, questions, and real-time collaboration.
