2010 INVITATIONAL SUMMER INSTITUTE

Each summer, HVWP invites a cohort of educators to study literacy development and the teaching of writing in a relaxed, collegial atmosphere on the SUNY New Paltz campus. Participants share best teaching practices as they write and examine recent research on literacy. This program, co-sponsored by the School of Education at SUNY New Paltz, features experienced facilitators and presenters, including university professors and veteran classroom teachers.

HVWP seeks applications from experienced educators in all disciplines--social studies, mathematics, art, science, technology, English language arts, music--who successfully integrate writing and reading instruction into their curriculum. Teachers working with students of all ages, from young children to adult learners, are invited to apply. HVWP also maintains a special interest in working with educators who teach English Language Learners, as well as those who work with students from communities affected by poverty.
