<div><font face="Arial, sans-serif" size="2">Using materials developed nationally for Reading First, the National Reading Technical Assistance Center (NRTAC) will provide these trainings on the following topics: Advanced Coaching, Advanced Leadership, Assessment,
Comprehension, and Vocabulary. The selected courses are aligned to the K-3 portion of the Oregon K-12 Literacy Framework. See <a href="http://www.ode.state.or.us/teachlearn/subjects/elarts/reading/literacy/oregon-k-12--literacy-framework-course-descriptions.pdf"><font color="#0000FF"><u>course

<div><font size="3"> <font face="Arial, sans-serif" size="2">A Training of Trainers (TOT) model is integrated into each course. Because building statewide capacity for the K‑3 portion of the Oregon K-12 Literacy Framework is one goal of this professional
development, each module serves a dual purpose: professional development for educators as well as a TOT for those knowledgeable participants who also have experience teaching adult learners. Following participation in a selected course, potential K-3 Framework
trainers will receive the course CD containing power points, speaker notes, and participant materials.</font></font></div>
