Free Webinar: Building Foundational Literacy Skills for Self-Efficacy in Learning

Literacy skills form the foundation of all learning. Without adequate literacy skills, students may struggle to understand and interpret new information and ideas. Therefore, building strong foundational literacy skills is critical for fostering self-efficacy in learning and promoting success in academic and professional pursuits.
In this webinar, we will explore strategies for building foundational literacy skills that promote effective read-to-learn skills. Rather than simply learning to read, students must learn how to use reading as a tool for acquiring new knowledge and skills.

One of the key strategies for building foundational literacy skills is to focus on phonics, the ability to decode written language into sounds and then blend those sounds to read words. This skill is essential for early readers who are just beginning to learn to read. By mastering phonics, students can read more fluently and accurately, leading to increased comprehension and self-efficacy.

Another critical strategy for building foundational literacy skills is to promote vocabulary development. A broad vocabulary allows students to understand and interpret a wider range of written material. It also enables them to express themselves more clearly in writing and in speaking.

In addition to phonics and vocabulary, students must learn how to comprehend what they read. This involves developing skills such as predicting, inferring, summarizing, and evaluating. By learning how to effectively comprehend written material, students can more easily connect new information to their existing knowledge, leading to deeper understanding and greater self-efficacy.

Finally, we will explore the importance of developing critical thinking skills in literacy. Critical thinking involves analyzing, evaluating, and synthesizing information to form reasoned judgments. By developing critical thinking skills, students can become more effective readers, writers, and communicators, leading to increased self-efficacy and success in all areas of learning.

In conclusion, building foundational literacy skills is critical for fostering self-efficacy in learning. By focusing on phonics, vocabulary, comprehension, and critical thinking, students can become more effective readers and learners, leading to increased confidence and success in all areas of their lives.
