Davis Learning Strategies Workshop
|
|
The Davis Learning Strategies® Workshop represents six years of working with Davis Methods in the classroom. It was developed to give Prep/Kinder to Year 3 classroom teachers’ unique strategies to give their students life-long skills in how to learn, and provide effective reading instruction. It is a strategy-based programme that builds on early school-based teaching in phonics and phonetic decoding by using clay modeling of high-frequency and basic sight words.
The workshop format and contents were researched and developed by a teacher who has over 20 years’ experience in classroom teaching, curriculum development and teacher mentoring. The Davis Learning Strategies® methods were created and developed by Ronald D. Davis, author of The Gift of Dyslexia and The Gift of Learning.
Date and Time Schedule
(short breaks are factored into the sessions)
This workshop is ONLINE, spread over 5 sessions. You MUST be available for all 5 sessions as it is very hands on. Sessions are (NZ time):
Thursday 8th Oct (1pm-5pm)
Sunday 18th Oct (8:30am-10:30am)
Wednesday 28th Oct (4pm-5pm)
Sunday 22nd Nov (8:30am-1pm, then 2pm-4pm)
Wednesday 25th Nov (3:30pm-5pm)
This option is great for those kaiako (teachers) that don't live near Whanganui (NZ), have almost exhausted their toolkit and need something else for their class of 2020. They can implement Davis Learning Strategies from the first day of term 4, receiving a little bit more information each session. This allows the kaiako the opportunity to continue to practice with their class, building on the sessions delivered prior.
