Innovate B
Syntax plays a crucial role in both reading comprehension and written expression, yet it is often an overlooked component of literacy instruction. In this session, participants will explore the power of syntax in constructing and extracting meaning from text. Through interactive activities, they will analyze how sentence structure impacts comprehension, discuss how syntax can enhance student writing, and identify the challenges presented by the complex syntax of academic language. Educators will leave with practical strategies to support students in navigating syntax effectively.
