The number one concern of almost all teachers is time. So how can we fit everything that literacy research shows to be positive for students into our already busy school days?

Join literacy experts Dr. Cheryl Lundy Swift and Leah Mermelstein in this engaging edWebinar as they explore effective handwriting, spelling, and writing strategies that save instructional time and enhance literacy learning. You’ll learn how to seamlessly integrate these vital components to help students become automatic, engaged, and fluent writers and readers, and leave with practical routines and practices to boost engagement and skill integration.

Attendees will come away with:

  • Practical strategies for handwriting, spelling, and writing composition
  • Routines that leverage the powerful synergy between decoding and encoding, reading, and writing to support successful application
  • Methods that not only elevate student performance but are also efficient for teachers

This edWebinar will be of interest to K-3 teachers. There will be time for questions at the end of the presentation.
