Events for December 14, 2024 - April 18, 2024

In this session, presenter, Dr. Jamey Peavler, will model how to use diagnostic reading and spelling assessments to identify next steps in our literacy instruction. The focus will be on applying information gained from these assessments to classwide purposes such as designing a classwide intervention, forming small groups, and adjusting Tier 1 instruction. This session will be most beneficial for K-3 classroom teachers, coaches and school leaders. These Experts Explain Series sessions are presented in partnership with the Indiana Department of Education.

Now that you’re familiar with what diagnostic assessments are and how to use them, presenter, Dr. Jamey Peavler will demonstrate how to use diagnostic data to identify underlying skill deficits when students are referred for intervention. Several real-life examples from striving readers will be shared, and participants will walk away with knowledge of how to plan an intervention for students that are identified at-risk on a universal screener. This session will be beneficial for K-6 teachers, special educators, coaches, and school leaders. These Experts Explain Series are presented in partnership with the Indiana Department of Education.
