Improving Your Child’s Language & Literacy Skills
3 Sensory-Cognitive Functions that Affect the Language Processing Spectrum
Friday, Feb. 22, 7-8pm
For decades educators have argued over how to teach reading. Phonics methods, sight word methods, and whole language methods have all proved insufficient to provide the level of reading ability individuals need to become independent learners.
Kristen Coley will discuss three sensory-cognitive functions—concept imagery, phonemic awareness and symbol imagery—that can improve your child’s language and literacy skills. Whether your child struggles with reading, spelling, or comprehension, or you simply want to learn a few extra ways to support your child in these areas, we hope you join us!
