My Project

Wilson conferences feature expert speakers, breakout sessions with practical information geared for participants' needs, and opportunities to share our experiences and ideas with peers. Each conference is purposefully designed for a specific audience which is reading teachers, reading specialists, and teachers in general who want to better their reading teaching skills. Wilson's materials will enable me to teach reading skills as the structured literacy method mandates to that every student from an early age can learn how to read. This conference welcomes Fundations Presenters, Fundations Facilitators, and educators with experience using Fundations to explore early literacy topics and the application of classroom techniques. Fundations lesson routines and strategies are presented for immediate practical implementation.
