Understanding what is essential in K-12 literacy content and best practices instruction to enhance that Content (CCSS)

This session will permit participants to discuss the essential elements of literacy instruction that include an intensive focus on comprehension learning.  Participants will explore what research says about balancing word learning and comprehension across the grade levels. Discussion will focus on how to prioritize instructional time in each of six language systems and, most importantly, how to differentiate instruction for children with a broad range of learning strengths and needs.
