Slingerland Literacy Institute Partnership

Calling all Reading Teachers! 📢

City University of Seattle has partnered with the Slingerland™ Literacy Institute to help eligible participants can receive a tuition discount for their CityU Reading Endorsement program as a rebate for participating in a Slingerland™ summer course.

Slingerland™ Literacy Institute trains educators in a comprehensive, multisensory, structured language approach inclusive of all five pillars promoted by the science of reading: phonological awareness, phonics and word recognition, reading fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension, plus the added benefit of handwriting instruction.
