The Phonics Road Map

Tuesday, June 11, 2024 | 4 p.m. (CT)

Join us for this fascinating and applicable presentation! Literacy expert and educator Amie Burkholder (@literacyedventures) will share what the research says about phonics instruction and five approaches to teaching it that you can implement it in practical ways within your own classrooms.

Phonics (and phonemic awareness) is the road to fluency and comprehension. Creating explicit and systematic instruction in this area is critical for all students to succeed and become fluent readers and writers.

Participants will walk away with a solid foundation of how to execute an explicit lesson and a tool kit of resources to get them started. All registrants who attend the live webinar will receive a free resource.

We hope you’ll join us!

Literacy Edventures

Amie is a K-5 Literacy Coach who’s passionate about creating hands-on + engaging literacy activities that follow the science. She taught in the classroom for 5 years before moving into her current coaching role where she has been for 10 years. Aside from being a literacy coach within her district, Amie is a literacy consultant supporting teachers and school districts through Literacy Edventures and her membership Route2Reading.

Amie first learned about the Science of Reading while teaching first grade. When she began her teaching career, she thought she had it all figured out. She quickly discovered that programs and balanced literacy didn't work for all her students.

She knew as a first-grade teacher, she played a crucial role in students’ literacy journey. She decided to go back to school and get her masters in reading.

While she was hoping this would be the missing piece, it wasn’t. She went on to receive Orton Gillingham and LETRS training.

After many years of training, research, and testing, she finally feels confident that she is best supporting her struggling readers and she is excited to share these strategies with you!
