You’ve done some assessments and gained some insight into student learning – now what? The Fountas & Pinnell Literacy Continuum provides that bridge. In this session, Siobhan will focus on how to use the Literacy Continuum to connect assessment data to instruction as well as monitoring student progress over time. Together we will look at how to use this resource with the new Alberta ELAL curriculum to construct a common vision for student achievement that effectively and efficiently engages all students in the robust, authentic, and meaningful literacy learning every child deserves.
