Project Core is a 12 part series of learning modules that aims to build capacity to support students of all ages who are emerging in their communication and literacy skills.
Project Core is a research-based, federally funded grant project from UNC-Chapel Hill, Center for Literacy and Disability Studies (CLDS). It is led by a special educator and researcher (Dr. Karen Erickson), uses an interdisciplinary approach and most importantly provides explicit instruction strategies to support teacher/therapist work with APS students with some of the most complex learning needs.
While this series was designed for educators, we believe that the information is important for families so they can support the development of their children's communication skills in the home and community environments and partner with the school staff to support learning.
This series will be offered virtually and we will forward links to join the sessions. These sessions are designed to take place over 12 weeks, so please plan to join us each Monday evening at 8pm for the duration of the series. (We will take a break during APS' winter break, and wrap up the end of the series in January). Thanks for committing to join us for this important series - we are looking forward to getting to know you, and know that the time we spend together will support your child's learning.
