ORONO The Fifth annual Suzanne W. Cole Reading Recovery and Early Literacy Institute will be held from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Thursday, May 20. The conference, which will be conducted virtually via Zoom, will be hosted by the University Training Center for Reading Recovery and Comprehensive Literacy at the University of Maine. In previous years, the institute has attracted more than 100 reading recovery teachers, literacy coaches and education professionals from across Maine.
University Training Center Reading Recovery trainer emeritus Lori Taylor will offer the keynote address, “Forever Changed: Lessons from Reading Recovery.” Her presentation will examine research findings and personal experiences that illustrate the influence of Reading Recovery on teachers, and teachers as learners. According to Taylor, many who complete the Reading Recovery training say it is the most rigorous and life-changing learning experience of their careers.
