  Teaching Reading Across the Day: Explore the Science of Reading and Art of Teaching

  with presenter Jennifer Serravallo

  2/5/2025 at 7:00 AM - 1:00 PM (Pacific Standard Time)

  Live On Zoom - Full Day 

  This full-day, interactive, online workshop is based on her new release with Corwin Books: Teaching Reading Across the Day.

  In this workshop, she’ll teach nine effective, predictable, research-based lesson structures participants can use whether teaching English Language Arts, Science, or social studies in grades K-8. Through explanation, activities, and videos, attendees will learn the pacing and structures of each lesson type, as well as high leverage, research-based practices that are important across all lesson types such as building vocabulary and knowledge, incorporating responsiveness, making appropriate text choices, and keeping students highly engaged. Throughout, Jen will connect to the science of teaching reading—sharing key research studies and replicated findings—and also speak to the art of teaching—honoring teachers’ craft and decision-making.

  Learning Objectives

  Participants will:

  • Identify purposes for nine lesson structures (read aloud, phonics and spelling, vocabulary, focus, shared reading, close reading, guided inquiry, reader’s theater, and conversation)
  • Visualize how various lesson structures will work with the specific grade level and subject area(s) taught
  • Plan an engaging lesson using a provided lesson template
  • Apply strategies to keep students engaged during lessons
  • Demonstrate an understanding of how to incorporate vocabulary instruction and intentional knowledge building within each lesson type
  • Implement informed choices about which texts to use for which lesson structures and purposes
  • Cite key research findings that undergird the recommendations in the workshop

  Jennifer Serravallo is the author of numerous books including Teaching Reading Across the Day, the New York Times’ bestseller, The Reading Strategies Book as well as other popular Heinemann professional books; The Writing Strategies Book; Teaching Reading in Small Groups; and The Literacy Teacher's Playbook, Grades K–2 and Grades 3–6, Teaching Writing in Small Groups and Connecting with Students Online.

  MATH-ish:  Teaching Mindset Mathematics

  Across the Grades

  Scientific evidence shows there is a different way to teach and learn mathematics. When people take a “mindset mathematics” approach, in all grades, different pathways open up, leading to higher, and more equitable achievement.

  A mindset mathematics approach involves teaching math(s) as a conceptual subject, highlighting the connections between ideas, and giving students mindset messages as they learn.

  Join Jo Boaler, along with Cathy Williams, in Exploring:

  • New evidence of the learning practices that separate low and high-achieving students.
  • Teaching ideas and approaches that can help all students achieve highly.
  • Topics including number sense, algebra, and data literacy across the grades
  • Teamwork on mathematics instructional approaches.
  • Research behind the approaches.
  • Videos of the approaches in action.

  The target audience includes, but is not limited to:

  • Classroom teachers of mathematics
  • Math/instructional coaches
  • Directors of teaching and learning
  • Building leadership teams
  • Building/district administrators
  • Educators of All Grade levels

  Jo Boaler, Professor of Mathematics at Stanford University, is a leading advocate for innovative teaching methods in mathematics, with a focus on:

  • Improving Mathematical Understanding
  • Delivering equity in education
  • Emphasizing the importance of flexible thinking, problem-solving, and collaborative learning.                                

  Dr. Boaler is co-founder of youcubed, a Stanford center that offers mathematics education resources to teachers, students, and parents. She is one of the original authors of the California Department of Education’s Mathematics Framework adopted in 2023. Author of numerous books and articles on math education, Jo aims to transform how mathematics is taught and learned, making it more accessible and engaging for all students.
