Playing with Language: Harnessing the Power of Text Structure to Improve Comprehension Through Writing
Presenter: Val Piccini Description: Text structure is the gateway to comprehension. In this immersive workshop, participants will learn evidence-aligned practices that emphasize and integrate a systematic and structured way to effectively teach text structures as a means of accessing and producing text. Participants will explore the energy of text structure at work through interactive writing experiences. Both teacher and student examples will be examined to support the transference of new learning into practice. So, grab any topic, your notebook, and a pencil and get ready to learn how to guide your students into deeper understanding of the content they are learning through the exploration of structure.
