Summary

The brain seeks patterns, and patterning is the basis for literacy. Dr. Judy Willis offers strategies for building vocabulary, fluency, and reading comprehension that correlate with neuroscience research. You'll find new practices—and tweak existing ones—that use patterning and pleasure to build literacy skills, comprehension, and memory to help students read with more enjoyment and success.

This webinar is a part of Judy Willis’ The Brain, Engagement, and Motivation Webinars Series.
