July 9, 2018 literacy footprints videos

Jan Richardson and I are putting the final touches on our interactive session at ILA 2018 (link no longer available)—What to Do When Kids Just Don’t Get it: Prompting for Deeper Understanding during Guided Reading. A few days ago, Jan and I synced up on video chat and decided to share a bit about our session with you. Watch our video to hear more!

I’d love to hear if you are planning on learning with us on July 21 in Austin, TX (link no longer available)! Tweet me @MicheleDufresne and Jan @DrJanRichardson (link no longer available) to let us know!

Happy reading!
