From Screening to Success: Navigating California’s Early Literacy Landscape
Join literacy leaders Linda Diamond, Kasey Klappenback, and Megan Potente for a compelling panel discussion on the future of reading in California. We go beyond the new law, SB 114, focusing on the essential, practical implementation of effective reading screenings. Understanding how to correctly use and interpret reading screenings is the crucial next step for all California schools.
This must-attend event shows educators and administrators how to properly utilize California’s new literacy laws to build a stronger foundation for lifelong reading success for all students. Furthermore, the panel discusses the potential impact of related legislation, like AB 1454, and explains why it’s essential for achieving early literacy success.
Key Strategies for Effective Implementation:
This session provides clarity and actionable strategies for California educators. The panelists will address:
- Understanding screeners: What they are, how to correctly interpret the results, and why they must remain curriculum-agnostic.
- Using data effectively: How to use screening data to identify both school-wide instructional needs and specific educator support needs.
- Early warning systems: How to use screeners as an early warning to identify students who need more specific diagnostic measures. This helps determine specific skill gaps and plan targeted instruction for reading intervention.
This recorded panel is essential for all educators, administrators, and parents seeking to understand and implement California’s new literacy landscape.
