Parent and Teacher Phonics Workshop
Glendora Public Library -- Bidwell Forum
September 26
9:30 AM - 12:30 PM
Have you or your child ever read a word and
thought, "Well, English is just crazy, that is a word that just has to be
memorized?” If you have, we have good news for you: English is not crazy and
there is a way to investigate words along with your child or students (dyslexic
and non-dyslexic) to learn the true underlying structure, and never utter those
words again!
You are invited to attend a Community Literacy Program on Structure Word Inquiry featuring Dr. Kelli Sandman-Hurley and Tracy Block-Zaretsky. Dr. Sandman-Hurley is a published author and researcher of dyslexia and received her doctorate in Literacy with a specialization in reading and dyslexia from San Diego State University and the University of San Diego. Ms. Block-Zaretsky is a trained Special Education Advocate assisting parents and children through the Individual Education Plan (IEP) and 504Plan process and has tutored children and adults with learning disabilities for the past 18 years. Together, they formed the Dyslexia Training Institute in San Diego.
Presented jointly by the Glendora, Azusa, Covina and Monrovia Public Library Literacy programs, as well as Glendora Public Library Friends Foundation, this program is offered free to all community members, including teachers, parents, students and anyone interested in adult and family literacy.
•Learn to find the sense in English and “sight words”.
•Become a word detective by conducting word hypothesis and creating word sums.
•Learn about the interrelationship between morphology, etymology and phonology.
The Glendora Public Library is located at 140 S. Glendora Ave., Glendora CA 91741. To register for this program, please call the Library at 626-852-4891.
