Loved the word mapping training. 

Word Mapping Training for 4th ad 5th grade

I received training with the Word Mapping Strategy on Jan. 20, 2022 by Mary Stowe.  This is the first SIM Learning Strategy I've been introduced to since I've become a Specialist in sever SIM Content Enhancement Routines.  I appreciate the easy connections between the Vocabulary LINCing Routine, which I'm a Specialist, and the Word Mapping Strategy.

I received face to face instruction in Word Mapping several years ago. I have worked with another professional developer in presenting this strategy to teachers a few times. Doing the virtual course during this conference was just what I needed to, not only review, but to learn some different ways to present this one.
The examples given were very helpful. the presenters were refreshing to hear and easy to follow- and we all know that virtual presentation are difficult!

Attended Word Mapping professional development session via Zoom with Mary Stowe leading the training.

I really enjoyed this session. The presenters, The presenters, Bonnie Palasak, Rosemary Tralli, Kimberlee Oakes, and  Monica Harris did a wonderful job. I am a current SIM Learning Strategies professional developer, and have trained several strategies. However, Word Mapping is not one that I have trained yet. It was very beneficial going through the four lessons of the program in detail. I feel much more comfortable with this training now.
