Professional Development Workshops for Coaches

Many of you have asked for additional training activities – and we are listening! There will be plenty of time for idea sharing and to connect with other Reading Seed coaches in your area, as well as an educational presentation on topics related to literacy and working with children.

An assortment of books from Reading Seed’s Free Book Area will be available at each workshop, and coaches will also be able to pick-up their 2011-2012 Reading Seed Game Board packets and journals at these events.

Reservations are required, as we have limited space available at these trainings.
