This workshop will extend the conversations which began at C4K’s Early Literacy Implementation trainings held over the summer. All participants will strengthen their understanding of how the use of universal screeners supports the components of a district’s core reading block (phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, comprehension and vocabulary) by alerting educators, in a timely fashion, to students who are at-risk of falling behind their peers on the reading trajectory. Additionally, time will be provided in each session for districts to use their FAST/TIER data, in conjunction with facilitated conversations, to begin the process of making system/instructional decisions.

Please Note: Content will be covered in the morning. Districts may choose to stay at the AEA in the afternoon and work/collaborate/plan. AEA consultants will be present in the afternoon to provide assistance as needed.
