About this Event
National research shows that many older students are still missing foundational reading skills.
Join national literacy leader Michelle Elia, Reading Horizons, fellow district leaders, and literacy professionals for an interactive conversation about what striving adolescent readers actually need.
Together, we’ll examine how reading develops, how to identify the underlying skills that may be holding readers back, and what those insights mean for effective adolescent intervention.
During this interactive conversation, we’ll discuss:
- What national research reveals about adolescent readers and unfinished literacy learning
- How to identify the underlying skills that may be holding readers back
- What these insights mean for district intervention strategy and support
Bringing the Conversation to Philadelphia
What do striving adolescent readers need to move forward? Michelle Elia will bring a local perspective to this conversation, joining Philadelphia-area education leaders to examine the needs of older readers and what effective intervention can look like in practice.
Together, attendees will share perspectives and consider practical approaches for supporting older students with unfinished literacy learning.
