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!
Dive Deeper into the science of reading with Literacy How
The Literacy How Professional Learning Series translates the latest reading research into how-to instruction. The Knowledge to Practice book Series—Phonemic Awareness and Phonics, Syntax, Vocabulary, and Comprehension—is based on the current and comprehensive Literacy How reading model. It draws upon the authors’ decades of expertise and experience working with thousands of general and special education teachers. The Series emphasizes Pre-K-3rd grade conceptual and skill development. Teachers of older emerging or struggling readers will also find these tools useful.
