Integrating Knowledge Building into ELA for Interdisciplinary Teaching *ON SITE* Workshop presented by The Living Literacy Network – 8:30-2:30pm

Knowledge building is essential for strong reading comprehension; it provides the foundation students need to understand, analyze, and engage with texts deeply. When readers bring background knowledge to texts, they can make connections, infer meaning, and grasp complex ideas more easily. In this workshop, teachers will learn how taking a knowledge-rich approach to reading helps students develop vocabulary, recognize themes, and think critically about what they read. Teachers will learn how to build rich and complex, multi-media text sets that support conceptual knowledge and transfer that they can integrate into existing curriculum and units as well as build bridges between content area instruction and literacy instruction. Audience: K-12 Educators Eligible for 6 hours CTLE credit. Can use 1-1/2 Consortium seats.If district pays, district approval must be confirmed prior to start of session.
