Because Literacy Builders is staffed exclusively by teachers and former teachers, we understand what it is like to sit through boring workshops filled with facts and figures that don’t seem relevant to our work. Time is a precious commodity and we all want the most from the time we dedicate to professional development.
At Literacy Builders we work hard to make sure our workshops are engaging, hands-on, and highly relevant. Each presentation that we offer is carefully planned to provide a balance of theory, practice, and examples from real classrooms. We infuse our workshops with artifacts from teaching: charts, student work, photographs, and audio-visual recordings. We make it our mission to send you home with practical ideas that you can use in your classroom on Monday. We aim to inspire and invigorate. And we want implementing new strategies to be do-able.
We offer workshops throughout the school year, as well as our Start September Strong series each summer. Check below to find out what is coming soon.
