Spring Literacy Institute

The Oakland Literacy Coalition’s Spring Literacy Institute is a dynamic two-day learning experience designed for literacy program leaders, educators, tutors, and staff. Join us to deepen your understanding of the Science of Reading and evidence-based reading practices.

By the end of this engaging, hands-on two-day in-person Institute, participants will:

🎯 Develop knowledge and strategies to support  fluency, stamina, foundational skills, oral language, comprehension, and critical thinking—all grounded in research-based best practices while remaining curriculum-agnostic.

📝 Master the key components of effective lesson planning, including foundational skills, fluency, and comprehension support.

🔄 Practice instructional routines that can be applied in one-on-one and small group settings to enhance student learning.

💡 Reflect & Collaborate with peers—setting goals, sharing successes, and refining instructional practices.

✅ Walk away with:
✔️ Actionable strategies to implement immediately
✔️ Concrete next steps to strengthen literacy instruction
✔️ Ready-to-use resources to support student success

Get ready to learn, practice, and connect! 🚀📚

PLEASE NOTE: Participation for both days is required.
