Training

I just finished a week of Literacy First Training.  It was great training.  I went to the training for pre-k to 2nd 10 years ago and learned a lot.  Since I am moving grades, I needed training for grades 3-6.  I am so glad that I went.
I learned what there is to reading instruction beyond simply learning how to read words.  I feel so much more confident in my ability to test fluency, assess comprehension and how to teach kids to do those things.  I had no idea of what all I didn't know (Lit First calls the unconscious incompetence).  Now I am going to spend some time finishing the CAFE book and getting set up to combine Literacy First and Daily5.  They will compliment each other so much!! I am so excited!!
