About this Event
Structured word inquiry” is word-level literacy instruction that engages learners of all ages and abilities by making sense of our surprisingly logical spelling system through scientific word investigation.
Teachers and students become “word scientists” who investigate families of related words and discover how the meaning structures of words (morphology), history (etymology), and pronunciation (phonology) work together.
SWI is an excellent addition to structured language literacy programs such as Wilson and Orton Gillingham and furthers knowledge of content level decoding, vocabulary and spelling
Dr. Bowers brought SWI to the Bay Area and the world. He was a visiting scholar at the Nueva School (2015-2016). His research has been published in prestigious journals and his workshops are highly sought after around the world.
