    Audience: Teachers, paraprofessionals, service providers, coaches/ consultants, administrators

    Instructors: Kristin Blain and Lindsey Fountain

    This playful, hands-on learning experience helps all special educators and service providers design truly comprehensive literacy instruction across reading, writing, and vocabulary for students with complex communication and access needs. Start with flexible online modules, then dive into in-person session(s) focused on access, presuming competence, and meaningful participation. In-person time will include a brief overview of strategies, “make-and-take” sessions, and time to plan as a team on how to embed literacy strategies into your existing schedule. You’ll leave with ready-to-use materials and a personalized action plan you can implement right away.


    Cost: $30, light snacks included both days

    SCECH's and CEU's will be available pending state approval

    If you have questions, please contact Lindsey Fountain, lfountai@oaisd.org
