Enhancing Literacy Skills with Visible Thinking Routines starts March 4, 2026

In this three-workshop series, facilitated by Tom Driscoll, learn about a powerful and practical set of strategies known as “visible thinking routines” that can help enhance literacy instruction. 

Making lessons more engaging

You can apply these routines to existing instructional materials to enhance learners’ ability to activate prior knowledge, make connections and predictions, retain information, think critically, and more!  

In 3 Zoom sessions (90 minutes each), we will discuss:

• Workshop 1 Theme:  What are visible thinking routines, how do they help learners, and what do they look like in action?
• Workshop 2 Theme: How can educational technologies enhance visible thinking strategies?
• Workshop 3 Theme:  How can I utilize visible thinking strategies with my existing resources?

The training series is three workshops:

• Wednesday March 4, 11, 18, 2026 from 3:30 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.

If you’re interested, secure your spot. And don’t forget to invite tutors working in your programs.
