During the Invitational Summer Institute, participants present literacy lessons.  These lessons cover a multitude of techniques for using artwork, drawing, music, and model texts as forms of prewriting and writing to learn, as well as ideas for improving reading comprehension. These teaching demonstrations may be accessed through the invitational summer institute participants pages or through the demonstration topics index. See also these expanded demonstrations.
