Canberra Workshop: Effectively Teaching Spelling Monday 7 April #ACT TQI accredited for 5 hrs PL. Register here: tessadaffern.com/events/effecti…

It's been a super 3 days, supporting the dedicated #teachers Burke Ward Public School Heath 🍉, examining CoSTEY & CoST data, discussing ways to refine a targeted, systematic, explicit teaching approach, incl. how to integrate spelling instruction with reading, vocab & text composition.

Thanks to the #ACT Teacher Quality Institute #Canberra for hosting this accredited PL workshop: How to #explicitly #teach #spelling while targeting ALL learner needs & ensuring transfer to reading & writing. Also clarified errors in poor & hastily designed programs/curriculums.

DIFFERENTIATING & ASSESSING SPELLING PL Includes FREE curated professional reading materials. Back by popular demand! tessadaffern.com/events/differe…

Thanks to #Bungendore Public School for hosting this PL yesterday, joined with #Gundaroo & #Sutton Public Schools. We focussed on building knowledge for responsive, targeted teaching; supporting students who find spelling hard but also extending high potential & gifted students.

Disappointed to hear of such cases. I empathize, speaking from personal experience: my work has also been unethically used, yet when I’ve tried to diplomatically address the issues, I too have received denials, threats & passive aggressive reactions. abc.net.au/news/2025-04-3…

Thanks PETAA for the opportunity to present this #reading course in Sydney this week. #Teachers were absorbed in thoughtful conversations, learning experiences & hands-on activities. Many thanks to Hilltop Road Public School 4 hosting🙏
