Is there a link to the slides that go with this talk? It is mentioned in the video, but not provided. TIA.
The ‘science of talk’. So important. Oral language skills still need to be taught, especially as many students don’t come to school with the oral language skills they need to develop reading comprehension. Many practical strategies provided in this webinar that are extremely important in every classroom each day.
Highly recommend all PATTAN webinars, however this is not the Judi Dodson recording.
Great catch Megan – I just updated the video 🙂
Thanks Una! Excellent webinar! Love the 50 Nifty resource! Powerful quote “If not us, who? If not now, when? If not here, where?”
