This summer the Laying the Foundation (LTF) training will return to Katy ISD. The district will offer a Level I (Beginner) and Level II (Advanced) training. During LTF English Training, strategies for teaching analytical reading and writing skills are demonstrated and modeled, weaving close reading, grammar, and composition together in interactive lessons that utilize selections from imaginative literature, nonfiction texts, and visual texts. Training also includes best practices in student journaling, pre-writing, composition, and revision and provides suggestions for student-generated technology extensions. LTF English Training enables Pre-AP and AP teachers to add depth to their existing language arts curricula and encourages middle school and high school students to strive for a deeper, more comprehensive understanding of English language and literature.
The LTF trainings are four days long and will be held in-district July 22-25. Participants must attend all four days. Pre-AP teachers will have first priority in enrollment. Courses will be available for registration in Eduphoria after April 15th.
