Evidence-aligned reading instruction benefits ALL students - this includes students who have dyslexia.

Systematic review & meta-analysis: readers' theater showed effects on fluency (accuracy, automaticity, and prosody) and on comprehension. Appreciate that readers' theater can act as a pedagogical bridge between word reading & comprehension. 🌉💗sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Our lovely reading specialists presented to our staff this morning. I’m so excited to see these Literacy Leaders in action as they support our teachers in these shifts to support all of our students in literacy!

Got this cute little book today. Our phonics curriculum does not cover schwa until very late, so my Title students lack exposure. It is too important to leave out when they hit multisyllabic words! So this year it changes! #NecessarySkill #PKVProud #UntilEveryChildCanRead

This is tough work, but this picture explains why I do what I do. I had some great teachers and administrators but the bad outweighed the good. I don’t do it for the money, I do it because I want to be a part of the village that changes lives. #adminlife #educator #heartwork
Get ready for a big surprise after Winter Break! Remember to read and complete your Bingo card! #BuildingtheBestSPS @EFES_Proud

Learn and Breakfast @EFES_Proud was a huge success! Kindergartners and First graders were using Alphabet Arcs to practice letter recognition, letter sounds, and making words!

Division the sweet way @WeAreBTWE. Mrs OBrien’s students read the Doorbell Rang in math class and divided cookies into equal groups by creating and solving single-step problems.

Tap It, Map It, Say It, Zap It! Enjoyed observing 3rd graders during small group reading today. They even let me participate. Shout out to my 3rd grade students and teachers! Way to go! ❤️💙❤️#WeAreBTWE #BuildingtheBestSPS @McLakeesha @CatherinePicho3
