 Title: Vocabulary Instruction: Supporting Oral Language Development
 Abstract: In this session you will learn the tactics of how literacy evolves from well-developed language skills including exposure to oral and written language, cognitive maturation, and reasonable quality instruction. Students with dyslexia may have weaknesses in both their oral and written language development due to their reduced interaction with the written word. The presenter will share various strategies to improve your students’ overall literacy skills by implementing purposeful vocabulary instruction.
