During this session, teachers will experience perhaps the single most important part of any reading program - independent reading. By living the process of independent reading, teachers will go deeper into its purpose and procedures. At the end of the session, participants will be able to implement independent reading in their classrooms according to the ACPS Literacy Model.
Rita Walden (Gloverville Elementary) and Amanda Meyer (Redcliffe Elementary) are Read to Succeed Coaches in Aiken County. They share a desire to increase reading achievement for all students and to create life-long readers.
