How in the world can my high school student who is non-speaking, has CVI and significant physical disabilities, possibly benefit from literacy instruction?” You will be amazed at what is possible when you provide all students access to age-respectful books. Building background knowledge is an essential component to comprehensive literacy instruction, especially for our most complex learners. This literacy webinar will give participants the what, why and how of building background knowledge, so that all students can learn to connect to a variety of rich, age-respectful literature.
