HL - Elementary Writing (LR)
Johnston REC HLAEA Aug 4 2026




This professional learning course is designed to deepen elementary educators’ understanding and application of evidence-based writing instruction aligned with the Iowa Academic Standards for ELA and the Iowa definition of the Science of Reading. Participants will explore instructional practices that ensure access for all learners, including students with disabilities and English Learners, through differentiated instruction, scaffolding, and explicit teaching strategies. The course emphasizes high-quality instruction, frequent opportunities to write across content areas, and development of transcription skills (handwriting, typing, spelling, sentence construction). Participants will learn to use assessment data, fidelity checklists, and coaching feedback to inform instruction and improve classroom outcomes, ultimately building educator capacity to deliver evidence-based writing instruction that supports all learners.
