2025 Virtual Structured Word Inquiry Institute

Join ​educators ​in ​one ​of ​three ​options ​for ​lively ​workshops ​that ​enable ​you ​to ​teach ​students ​how ​to ​read ​and ​spell ​using ​critical ​thinking ​skills, ​while ​developing ​a ​lifelong ​understanding ​of ​how ​the ​English ​spelling ​system ​works. ​This ​SWI ​approach ​eliminates ​rote ​memorization ​and ​explores ​a ​linguistic ​understanding ​of ​spelling ​that ​is ​all ​but ​absent ​from ​typical ​teacher ​training ​and ​resources.

Three ​Institute ​Options

• Three-day ​Introductory ​Workshop: ​Mon, ​June ​16–Wed, June 18 ​($700)
• Three-day ​Advanced ​Workshop: ​Wed, ​June ​18–Fri, June 20 ($700)

• Full ​five-day ​Workshop: ​Mon, ​June ​16–Fri, June 20 ​($1000), ​for ​both ​novice ​or ​experienced ​participants.

All ​sessions ​are ​10:00 ​a.m.–4:00 ​p.m. PACIFIC DAYLIGHT TIME with a working lunch break from 12–1:30 p.m.

Registration ends 24 hours prior to start of the respective workshops.

Recorded option: In order to include participants from a variety of time zones, we are offering a recorded option to the course. Recordings will be available to watch the week of the institute and the following week. They will be password protected and will NOT be available to download.
