EVENT: THURSDAY OCTOBER 13, 2022 AT THE HAMILTON GARDENS 10 AM-3 PM
Lifting literacy rates for children including those with learning diversities, neurological differences
We invite leaders, teachers, teacher aides, caregivers, parents and whānau to join us to learn how we can support struggling readers
We will discuss how we can support and teach children with learning disabilities/diversities by using explicit, systematic, and sequential teaching of literacy at multiple levels. Facilitated by Mabel Wharekawa-Burt with guest speakers Dr Olwyn Johnston and Natalie Muller we aim to discover how we can best help schools, children and whānau to lift the literacy rates for struggling students. It is crucial that all children are educated in a way that; (a) best suits their learning needs; and; (b) will positively impact their educational journey. You will learn about the past, present and help plan the future for struggling readers who have the potential to be GREAT readers with the correct intervention.
There are children in primary, intermediate and high school who cannot access the curriculum efficiently because they cannot yet read. For 10-15% of the population, the underlying causes of reading difficulties can often be as a result of the neurological differences. Join us to discuss how we can make the best investment for successful literacy outcomes for our children. Full project brief our work
RSVP October 7, 2022 limited seats available - morning tea, lunch and afternoon tea provided
