In the sixth installment of the Lead for Literacy NAESP interactive webinar series, Jess Surles, M.Ed. and Lauren Artzi, Ph.D. discuss promoting children’s language and meaning-level literacy skills in early elementary school. As a follow up to the session, Promoting Code-based Literacy Skills in Early Elementary School, this session will focus on the use of evidence-based practices for promoting elementary-aged children’s academic language, vocabulary, and comprehension in both traditional and virtual learning environments. Presenters will also discuss key considerations for using EBPs to support comprehension and language across all tiers of instruction.
