An important aspect of supporting students in literacy efforts is involving students’ families, first by sharing knowledge about the reading problems children can experience, and then by explaining the interventional and instructional strategies that can be used in school and at home to help bridge literacy gaps.
Scenario: In your role as a literacy coach, you have been asked to develop an informational presentation geared toward parents/families of students in the elementary school. Refer to this week’s readings and learning activities for pertinent ideas and information to include in your presentation.
Create a 10- to 12-slide presentation that addresses the following components:
· Explain research-based factors that impact reading success (science of reading domains: phonemic awareness, phonics, vocabulary, fluency, comprehension).
· Recommend specific strategies for parents and families to help students with reading development (consider the 5 domains of reading as you choose these strategies).
· Provide at least 3 online resources or applications that can support your recommended strategies. Explain how parents and families might use those resources at home to support their child’s reading development.
Include the following in your presentation:
· Detailed speaker notes
· A title slide, an introduction, a conclusion, and a reference slide
· In-text citations and references cited according to APA guidelines
