This learning module supports the teaching of oral language and explicit vocabulary instruction and their connection to reading comprehension by providing background knowledge and explaining specific activities.
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?”
