Session 1: Strengthening the Reading Muscle – Recorded September 27, 2022, 3:00 to 4:30 p.m. PT

Non-fiction reading is challenging for many students even though informational texts and topics are some of the first things introduced to them in school. Why is this the case? How do we support our learners as they grapple with challenging primary sources, complex discipline specific vocabulary, and topics that seem far removed from their lives? This session offers teachers a solution and a scaffold to support readers as they strengthen their abilities and dig deep into the mysteries of history.
