Our students come to us with different lived experiences and learned skill sets. In order to ensure that every student has access to enduring understandings, concepts, and vocabulary, we must work to build an efficient bridge to grade-level materials. A well-built text set can be that bridge! This workshop will walk you through the creation of effective text sets, both big and small. If you teach in upper elementary, middle school, or high school, this workshop is for you!

Not every student is ready to read to learn by the fourth grade. In this course, you will have the opportunity to dive into those areas of adolescent literacy that are most relevant to supporting the success of your adolescent students. Additionally, each of the three parts includes practical suggestions for better understanding and addressing the needs of older struggling readers.
