CPD Webinar – Why is reading comprehension so hard?
This Webinar will be live on the 20th January 2025 at 4.30 – 5.30pm GMT
Ever wondered why some students seem to hit a wall when it comes to reading comprehension? It’s not just about the words on the page—it’s about the brain behind the reading! In this webinar, hosted by CiM’s Head of Schools Support, Victoria Bagnall, we’ll explore how executive function skills, like working memory and cognitive flexibility, play a key role in understanding what we read.
What you will learn:
- Understand why some learners find reading comprehension difficult
- Learn about the parts of the brain heavily involved in reading comprehension (our pre-frontal cortex and its cognitive functions)
- Understand why stress, lack of sleep, poor nutrition and other factors can influence reading comprehension
- … and much more!
