Building Reader Resiliency: Why How We Read Matters

Reading is the cornerstone of literacy but what many people don’t realize is that it is not a natural process. It takes time and effort to learn how to read efficiently and for some students, it can be a frustrating process. That is why we need to build reader resilience. In this workshop, we will revisit a few key principles to help students become more strategic readers capable of drawing on their entire linguistic repertoire to negotiate meaning. We will also reflect a little more on what it means to struggle alongside a text and some strategies to help overcome it.

This workshop is part of the Turo-Guro Summer 2022 Workshop series.
