Read, Write, Lead: Breakthrough Strategies for Schoolwide Literacy Success

with Regie Routman

Learn how to increase reading and writing achievement, engagement, and enjoyment for all students, including English language learners and students who struggle.

In this webinar, respected educator and ASCD author Regie Routman focuses on the content of her latest book, Read, Write, Lead, which is based on more than four decades of teaching, coaching, and mentoring teachers and principals in diverse schools.

Using classroom stories, photos, student work, current research, and her ongoing work in diverse classrooms, Routman discusses how and why teachers and leaders in schools must develop shared beliefs, apply an optimal learning model across the curriculum, and use the language of productive feedback to move learning forward—for both teachers and students.

The webinar highlights strategies for writing for authentic audiences and purposes, reading for enjoyment and understanding, embedding professional literacy communities into the daily life of the school, reducing the need for intervention, and connecting to Common Core State Standards' priorities.
