In this 15-hour study group, TCs will read brief articles from landmark researchers and portions of Strategic Teaching & Learning, a best-practices resource text compiled by California Department of Education. Together, we will explore interactive methods that engage readers, support comprehension, and expand idea development for learners of all ages. Participants will discuss implications for classroom instruction with a special emphasis on adult book study groups.

This is a required course for future leaders of community-funded book study groups in Manteca and Ripon.

MEETING DATES, TIMES, AND LOCATION:

Teachers will attend six meetings through Summer-Fall 2010: The first two dates will be announced on May 5, 2010; the remaining dates and times will be selected by the group at the first two class meetings.

Meetings will be held at homes of local participants in Manteca, Lathrop, and Ripon.
(The location of the first meeting will be announced on May 5, 2010.)
