Are the in-person courses and the webinars exactly the same?

Both cover the same content but the webinar courses are longer. They have opportunities for trying out the activities and discussion that there isn’t time for on the shorter in-person courses.

PRIMARY PHONICS AND EARLY WORDS COURSES

TERM THREE & FOUR (2020)

TERM ONE 2021

TERM TWO 2021

"Every teacher should do your course! Very rarely you go to a course and are interested and awake for a whole 2 hours, then come away inspired, armed and ready to put it all into practice."

"Brilliant: the best PD I've been on. I liked the speed of the training. It was fast, valuable: fantastic!"

"One of the few courses that provides you with everything you need to go off and teach right away: lesson plans, assessments, all the info from planning to teaching and assessing."

"It’s great to have a programme that is tried and true, based on sound research and developed for New Zealand schools. I can implement this in my classroom tomorrow without having to buy expensive resources."

"Thank you for your excellent course at Halswell. I've received lots of feedback from other staff about how much they got out of it and how well you presented it. It was great. Thanks again."

"As a New Entrant teacher I absolutely loved the day as it was completely relevant to me and the needs of the students in my class."

"The best course I have ever done. Having a degree in linguistics I can resolutely say that this has helped me more in my teaching of phonics than a BA and B Ed combined! Thank you."

"We all thoroughly enjoyed the course and the teachers wished they had done it years ago. It is always refreshing to have your enthusiastic, professional and slick delivery – fantastic! Everyone is inspired!"
