Live Virtual Professional Development

The Keys trainer will use Zoom video conferencing to deliver this training in an interactive format using features such as breakout rooms and chat.  Sessions are not recorded - attendance only in real time.

Keys to Adolescent Literacy professional learning is grounded in evidence-based practices and complements Joan Sedita’s new book, The Essentials of Adolescent Literacy: Integrating Evidence-Based Reading & Writing Instruction in Grades 5–12.

Throughout the sessions, educators of grades 5-12 will gain:

• Research-grounded strategies for vocabulary, comprehension, writing, and text structure
• Tools for integrating literacy into every content area
• Practical approaches for supporting adolescents with dyslexia, executive function challenges, and other literacy difficulties
• A framework for using assessment data to guide instruction and interventions

Keys to Adolescent Literacy includes nine three-hour sessions (see outline below). Join us for the entire series or select sessions that align with your instructional priorities and needs.

This professional learning provides evidence-based strategies for students in grades 5 through 12 and is easily adaptable to any curriculum or content area.
