In this course we begin to look at Structured Word Inquiry, what it is, how it works, the research behind it and example lessons. 

The first part of the course explores what Structured Word Inquiry is and how it differs from traditional methods of teaching reading and spelling. 

The second half of the course provides examples of what this looks like in the classroom. 

This is an introductionary course, if you'd like to dig deeper into SWI, Pete will be leading a live course in September 2023 where you can learn how to teach SWI and consider what it might look like in your classroom.
