Hands On Webinar – How to Engage Families in a Science of Reading Workshop

The Ohio Statewide Family Engagement Center is offering a Hands-on Webinar designed to equip professionals to facilitate a Science of Reading workshop with families in their community.

April 3, 2025 1-2:30 PM EST

As part of the Hands-on Webinar, we’ll equip you with all the necessary resources to host a workshop. You’ll get a recorded version of the workshop, a comprehensive facilitator guide, family-friendly handouts, and creative activity ideas. We will also provide time for you to collaborate with other participants to hear their ideas, and plan your event, with multiple opportunities to tailor the materials to the families you plan to provide the workshop for.

You will be sharing with families the knowledge of how kids learn to read and write, how schools are teaching reading and writing in Ohio, ideas for how to support their children’s literacy development, and good questions to ask their child’s teacher. By partnering with families, you help to provide the support network that students need to become skilled readers and writers.
