Jerry Johns!

This past February, we all sat in admiration while listening to Jerry Johns present about differentiated fluency interventions. He made us laugh while still getting down to business. We walked away with a packet full of intervention strategies narrowed down by reader type! Many of us ran straight to purchase his latest book!

Our newest board member, Kristina Utley, and board member, Debra Gurvitz, display Partnering for Content Literacy by Donna Ogle, Past President and founder of SCIRA. They have contributed chapters to the book as has SCIRA board member, Christine Seidman.
