Course Description: Learn how to incorporate TPRS into YOUR classrooms immediately. There will be purposeful instruction on the Three Steps, along with many skills necessary to make TPRS work in any classroom, regardless of which level. The first few days will be focused on discussing and practicing the skills and strategies, while the last two days and the post-workshop work will be focused on the creation of stories and lessons that can be used at the start of the year. We will discuss how extended readings can be used to drive the curriculum. At the end of the course, each teacher will have enough extended readings to last 17-25 hours of contact time. TPRS is fun and effective, and it can work for you! About the Instructor: Elizabeth Hughes has been an elementary TPRS teacher for five years.
