WEBINAR DESCRIPTION

Learn about nine effective, predictable, research-based lesson structures that help busy teachers save planning time and focus their teaching—and student attention—on content rather than procedures.

Each of the nine lesson structures (read aloud, phonics and spelling, vocabulary, focus, shared reading, close reading, guided inquiry, reader’s theater, and conversation) has its own chapter in Jen’s newest book, Teaching Reading Across the Day, which also features a wealth of resources that let you see the lessons in action in ELA, Science, and Social Studies classes.
