TRAINING FOR MODULES 1 & 2
New to RAVE-O? Start your journey here!
RAVE-O was developed by Dr. Maryanne Wolf, author of Proust and the Squid and a leading voice in reading and dyslexia research.
Ready to help your students become fluent readers using a multicomponential approach that’s as fun as it is effective? Welcome to RAVE-O Town! Built on the POSSUM approach, RAVE-O is a research-based intervention that develops deep word knowledge by connecting phonology, orthography, semantics, syntax, and morphology. Studies show RAVE-O drives significant gains in vocabulary, fluency, and comprehension.
RAVE-O Module 1 and 2 training begins with 5 hours of self-guided learning, followed by a full-day live virtual session where you’ll put it all into practice and connect with fellow educators.
