PISD Summer Inspire 2024

Is your students’ challenge with comprehension affecting their learning across content areas? Do your students struggle to effectively respond in writing to what they’ve read or viewed? Writing responses rely on comprehension AND the skills to answer in their own words to demonstrate their understanding of content. Discovering and implementing effective ways to help our students become strategic readers who can write about what they read is essential in all subjects!

What you’ll learn:
-tools and strategies to model and build the invisible, in-head actions essential for comprehension of various stimuli including text, videos, demonstrations, visuals, and mini-lessons
-how to incorporate engaging experiences for processing and practice with text, videos, and visuals
-how to guide students to answer a short-constructed response question from a prompt and communicate detailed explanations with relevant vocabulary and supporting evidence to showcase their depth of understanding in response to the text or visual stimulus

Your solution for improving comprehension and short-constructed response skills that will support student learning and success in all subjects.
