The day focuses on the essential literacy skills that move children into and through PLD’s Stage 1 and Stage 2 programs, developing early decoding skills so that spelling and writing can develop with confidence. Participants learn how to use the PLD Screening and Tracking Sheets to form three targeted teaching groups and create a practical, term-ready plan to deliver daily SSP lessons for students working in the most critical window of early literacy development.Tracking Sheet DataRecommended: This seminar includes a short workshop segment for planning with your own data. If you (or your school) is currently implementing PLD, please bring recent class data (screening/placement results and access to PLD Tracking Sheets) so we can maximise the coaching time available in the session and ensure you leave with a classroom-ready plan for the upcoming term. https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/50af5e10-fcac-11f0-b494-b398a7ecfd23-rimg-w1008-h740-dcee6c22-gmir.png Also AvailableTwo-Day Seminar Option (Guided Implementation): Workshop time is limited in the one-day intensive. For added support and coaching, the two-day seminar runs as two full-day sessions a week apart in-term, creating an implementation window to apply PLD in your classroom and return for guided feedback and next steps.About PLDPLD (Promoting Literacy Development) supports Australian schools with evidence-based SSP programs, aligned with the Science of Reading.
