Reading IS a Science! (K-3)
Seats Filled: 4 / 30
Fee: $100.00
Location:MELISSA ISD, MELISSA MIDDLE
Contact Person: Susan Speed
Important Breakout Information:
Brain research has shown that Reading is not a natural process nor is it a guessing game. Systematic, explicit phonics instruction is the most reliable way to ensure that students learn how to read words. Word recognition combined with language comprehension produces skilled reading. In this session participants will gain an understanding of the science of how students learn to read.

The Art of Writing (3-12)
Seats Filled: 9 / 30
Fee: $100.00
Location:MELISSA ISD, MELISSA MIDDLE
Contact Person: Susan Speed
Important Breakout Information:
Skilled authors use tools and techniques to craft their masterpieces. If we want students to be better writers, then we must teach them the “art” of writing by exposing them to a variety of author’s craft moves and providing time for them to analyze and experiment with those tools. In this session, participants will clearly define author’s craft, identify different types of craft, and learn strategies for using art and the reading/writing connection to teach the art of writing.
