Workshop Registration Details

The training will compose of the following two components:
1. Instructional Routines for Enhancing Comprehension: In In this powerful session, participants will learn how to effectively implement 2 highly supportive instructional routines for enhancing comprehension. A Comprehension Purpose Question (CPQ) provides a scaffold for students as it links to strategies that good readers use. Participants will explore CPQs, practice a process for planning a CPQ, and evaluate and select quality CPQs. The Think-Turn-Talk routine provides students with opportunities to think and participate in deep discussions about text. Well planned questions during reading support deeper comprehension and engagement with text. Participants will leave the session with lessons they will be able to teach in their class.
2. Making Connections: During Making Connections, participants will explore ways to effectively build background knowledge and how to help students activate existing background knowledge necessary for comprehension. This foundational session addresses how to teach the strategy of Making Connections across content areas using the eight-step Cognitive Strategy Routine.
