The ultimate goal of reading is to understand any text from the earliest decodables to the most complex content. That means that comprehension instruction shouldn’t wait for beginning readers to master decoding. Instruction that focuses on a variety of language processing abilities needs to occur concurrently with word recognition instruction!

Dont forget your book
Over the past few years, many teachers have used our Knowledge to Practice Series books to enhance their classroom instruction. The Syntax book has been of particular interest to teachers because it builds teachers’ background knowledge and it also explains how to teach students about syntax in concrete and engaging ways vs. teaching rote memorization of the ‘parts of speech.’ This online course brings the book to life and includes many practical tips and activities to prepare your lessons.
Participants will use their Literacy How Professional Learning Series: Syntax book as they progress through the course!
