Real Talk About the Science of Reading, the Science of Learning, and the Kids Who Lick the Carpet and Eat their Shoes!
$150 for CKA members, $160 for nonmembers, and $75 for students.
Lunch is included.
Did you know that the brain has a backdoor for learning that’s easily hacked into? Using neuroscience as a roadmap, discover how to take advantage of early developing “backdoor” systems for learning to fast-track letter mastery and make hard phonics sounds easily predictable. No more having to tell kids, “It just is…It just does…You just have to remember…” when they can’t read or spell a word. Instead, you will be armed and ready to help them crack the phonics code they NEED to read!

Meet the presenter…
Katie Garner, M.Ed., author of Secret Stories® Cracking the Reading Code with the Brain in Mind, is an international keynote speaker, author and educator with 30 years of classroom experience, and a passion for infusing neuroscience into literacy and learning. Her “backdoor to the brain” approach using neuroscience to deliver phonics faster has become a cornerstone of science of reading-based instruction and professional development for teachers. Katie’s fast-paced and dynamic presentations spotlight evidence-based strategies for boosting existing reading/phonics curriculum with the latest neural research on how our brains learn best. Her practical and proven methods have been the topic of both lecture and panel discussions at Harvard University and MIT, as well as the subject of numerous professional journal articles and publications. Katie’s Facebook Group, Science of Reading Meets Science of Learning is a popular learning hub for 150K+ educators from around the world and provides access to free instructional resources in the group files. bit.ly/SoRgroup.
