Babies start learning to read the moment they are born. Reading and writing skills are built on a foundation of the amazing complexity of understanding and use of the sounds, words, sentences, and intentions of the language to which we are exposed. While understanding and speaking are generally automatic and natural ways of engaging with language, as a rule, reading and writing must be directly taught. Insights into the ways in which the components of aural/oral language contribute to the development and achievement of literacy will be presented. Participants will learn how each aspect of language is related to literacy on the oral-written continuum, as well as where the differences lie, and how the language teachers use influences student learning.

Working memory is essential to effective learning. In concert with executive functions and language, working memory can facilitate or interfere with ease of learning. The essence of working memory function, ways to recognize working memory failures, and compensatory techniques for ensuring success for students with working memory weaknesses will be presented.
