There it is, a really big word. Hmmmm, Now what? Rats! Just skip it". This is a common behavior of students who do not have a plan of action in approaching multisyllabic (big) words in their social studies, science, or other content area classes. Skipping the big words decreases comprehension of the passage. Oftentimes, reading instruction in decoding ends after second grade which leaves students to determine how to access those big words on their own--many fail the task! This webinar will show how to teach students to attack those big words and, in turn, build better understanding of what is being read.

As Californians know, the state is experiencing another reckoning with reading achievement. The past decade has seen no significant improvement in reading scores and the wide gaps between racial and socioeconomic groups are not improving. Many educators are re-evaluating how to improve literacy outcomes and have expressed a need for deepening content knowledge and expertise in language and literacy.
This webinar shares the story of Elk Grove Unified School District with ELA education leaders Patty Tong and Michelle Templeton highlighting lessons learned as they successfully tackle the literacy learning problem and continue to build capacity across their large California district.
Attendees will also hear from renowned literacy expert and author of LETRS®, Dr. Louisa Moats, as she discusses the importance of professional development in changing student reading achievement, what makes effective PD content, and how teacher knowledge affects and drives student learning.
You won’t want to miss this applicable and timely presentation designed to help small and large district educators build capacity and create reading success for all their students.

Every two years, the NAEP delivers a wealth of data that lets us track and compare states, groups, and subgroups across borders and time. Focusing on fourth grade reading performance, this webinar will introduce you to NAEP’s all-powerful Data Explorer, a portal that will help you to go well beyond cookie-cutter reports of state performance.
During this webinar, you will learn how to make apples-to-apples comparisons that level the playing field, track groups and subgroups, as well as look at outcomes in finer detail to uncover better answers and next questions. If a state improved, did all groups benefit? If a state declined, did it occur across the board? Is a result a trend we can see during multiple years?
You will be able to answer those questions and more by learning how to use the NAEP Data Explorer. Venture down the rabbit hole of data analysis and see where it takes you.
Roland Good
Presented by researcher and author Dr. Roland Good, III, of Acadience® Learning, discusses the importance of using effective and efficient assessment to support students with reading difficulties, including dyslexia, for improving academic outcomes. Learning to read and write is essential for student success in school and life. Students with reading difficulties, such as dyslexia, can experience significant challenges in school and beyond if not provided with early identification and intervention. Dr. Good examines how data from dyslexia screening can be used to support students with reading difficulties through literacy professional development, explicit instruction, and targeted intensive intervention. By understanding where struggling readers are, knowing where they need to go, and planning the path they need to follow, educators can help at-risk students succeed.

When they write and spell, students show us what they know and believe about spoken and written language. If we, as educators, look with an informed eye, we can readily see what needs to be taught and what that student needs to learn. Join us for this enlightening presentation during which Dr. Louisa Moats will share her unique insight and expertise as we take a close look at writing samples and explore what they tell us about students’ instructional needs.
In this informative webinar, Dr. Moats will review:
