45. LETRS
Program: English Language Arts
Dates: 6/3/2020 to 6/4/2020

LETRS is an empowering professional development course of study for instructors of reading, spelling, and related language skills. LETRS is not a literacy curriculum. Instead, it provides knowledge and tools that teachers can use with any good reading program. BOCES will facilitate a blended learning model including facilitated study of online materials and face-to-face instruction by a facilitator from Voyager-Sopris Learning. See the online catalog or call Lorie Ostrander for more information. A total of four face-to-face and seven online study days are required. You will receive a calendar in the mail. Please select your preferred location and register for each session individually. **The participants for this workshop must have the pre-approval from their principal to attend this workshop!**
