Vaughan Elementary
Joy Taylor, facilitated a professional development session on literacy at Vaughan Elementary. The focus was on Shared Reading to Teach Comprehension Strategies.
The Language Arts Program supports Prince William County Schools' vision that all students will learn to their fullest capacity. Central to Language Arts is the development of a continuum of literacy skills and strategies for students in kindergarten through grade twelve. This continuum includes processes critical to reading, writing, speaking, listening, information management, and the use of technology.
