One idea that stood out to us from this article is that the more deeply a student knows a word, the more likely they are to recognize it, spell it, define it, and use it in speaking and writing.

New article on how to teach vocabulary explicitly.
Thanks @MrZachG for the amazing recent podcast episodes with @smorrisey and Anita Archer which inspired me to write this and heavily influenced the scripted lesson example I’ve included.

Comprehension starts at the word level. 🚀 When students struggle with a text, it’s often the vocabulary. Strong vocabulary = stronger comprehension.

“Fifteen years. Thirteen million students. Not a single high-quality, independent study showing i-Ready improves learning.”
And in Georgia? We kept it on the approved list…because it’s widely used.
That’s not evidence-based leadership.
That’s lowering the bar for kids.
We should demand better.

Everyone teaching phonemic awareness READ THIS ‼️This blog skilfully explores the research as to why phonemic awareness should focused on blending and segmenting of individual sounds [rather than lots of time on rhyme, syllables]. ⏰Get up to date! open.substack.com/pub/scienc…
