Lindamood-Bell Learning Processes
About the CPD course
The Visualizing & Verbalizing course's primary goal is to make class members aware that concept imagery is the specific sensory-cognitive function basic to language comprehension and critical thinking. Class members will learn the role of concept imagery in reading comprehension, oral language comprehension, following oral directions, critical thinking, oral language expression, and written language expression.
Information and techniques are gained through discussion, demonstration, video, reading, and supervised practice. Study and supervised practice allow class members to learn Socratic questioning to develop sensory-cognitive functions, and integrate the steps into any curriculum, reading programme, language arts programme, and content instruction.
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.
