About the CPD course
The Seeing Stars® course explores the sensory-cognitive processes basic to phonological and orthographic processing; decoding; reading in context; and spelling. Class members will learn the role of symbol imagery in automaticity in phonemic awareness; acquisition of sight words; acquisition of accurate spelling rather than phonetic spelling; and development of fluency in contextual reading for all ages of students. Information and techniques are gained through discussion; demonstration; video; reading; and supervised practice allowing class members to learn to “respond to the response” to develop sensory-cognitive functions; and integrate the steps into any curriculum; phonics programme; reading programme; or language arts programme.
Founded in 1986 and in the UK since 2002, Lindamood-Bell has pioneered evidence-based programmes that develop the imagery-language foundation underlying reading, spelling, language comprehension, maths, memory, and critical thinking. Aligned with the Cognitive Science of Reading from the start, Lindamood-Bell for Schools offers Levels of CPD, from initial workshops and on-demand refinement courses to live in-classroom support and advanced instructional leadership development. We believe, passionately, that all children and adults can be taught to read, comprehend, and do maths to their potential.
