Date: Thursday, November 19, 2026
Time: 2:20–3:20 PM | Scarbrough 1
Location: The Hyatt Regency Savannah
Presenters: Sherry Peterson, Director of Instruction, Services for Exceptional Children, Fulton County Schools, and Dave Kiyvyra, Director of Development, Lindamood-Bell for Schools
Description: Science of Reading discussions often emphasize decoding, treating comprehension as a byproduct of fluency rather than an essential literacy component requiring explicit, sequential, and cumulative instruction. When addressed, comprehension typically focuses on vocabulary and background knowledge. Research, however, indicates that sensory-based instruction in Concept Imagery underlies the development of vocabulary, background knowledge, oral and written language comprehension, and critical thinking.
Educators will examine how weaknesses in Concept Imagery affect learning, analyze data to identify instructional needs and outcomes, and apply practices that develop Concept Imagery. Participants will learn how these process-based practices can complement any High-Quality Curriculum effectively.
