Literacy Learning in Action Workshop: Syllable Types and Why They Matter

     This workshop is sponsored by the St. Lawrence Valley Teacher Learning Center and is open to all education students. It is part of a Literacy Learning in Action Workshop series that will be held throughout the academic year. Participants will include SUNY Potsdam students and staff, as well as local teachers! Please join us for this professional workshop to deepen your literacy instructional practice.

     Understanding syllable types is essential for teaching reading and spelling. In this hands-on workshop, you’ll explore the six syllable types and how to implement them in your classroom. Participants will engage in interactive activities like sorting words into syllable categories and will learn how to incorporate this knowledge into daily instruction for both early learners and more advanced readers.
