development in evidence-based literacy instruction that focuses on the emergent
and beginner stages. This workshop will provide teachers with an understanding
of reading development and provide practice with effective teaching strategies
for phonemic awareness, phonics, and word recognition. The institute presenter

learning activities and implementation guidance for addressing the needs of
middle school students.
