Three inductees presented their action research and have successfully completed their two-year induction journey @WIU07. If your school or district needs options for induction, contact me. We have three different pathways. š
Are you a Pennsylvania public/nonpublic school or preschool and looking for Educator Induction options for your new employees? Look no further! The @WIU07 is offering an option for SY 24-25. Check out the flyer, contact me, and let's chat.

Our inaugural @WIU07 Reading Specialist Regional Job-Alike session today. Thank you @JasonStragand and @readingeduk8r for your leadership! #WIUProud
Jan shares so much good information about reading fluency in this episode. I especially loved hearing how she explains the idea of prosody to students and how she connects it to brain research. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcasā¦

There are people who:
ā¢Know more than you
ā¢Know more about certain things than you
ā¢Know what to do more effectively than you
ā¢Know more with less experience than you
ā¢Know that they are ābetterā at certain things than you
Find them. Embrace them. Learn from them.

The ABCās of SOR š (REVISED!)
Thank you to everyone who added to my list of favourite researchers and contributors to the #ScienceOfReading!
Inspired by my own childrenās favourite road trip game, this ABC of #SOR list aims to direct educators to some of the best research that has helped guide my #ScienceOfReading learning journey!! @sstollar6 @janhasbrouck @PamelaSnow2 @RWheldall
Adding this to my wishlist! Teaching schwa can be tricky but so important!
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
Teaching is so complex, and there isnāt just a simple answer or solution to helping students learn to read. Loved being a fly on the wall to this conversation and highly recommend listening if you have time to learn more about teaching students how to read podcasts.apple.com/us/podcasā¦

@LexiaLearning #LETRS workshop on word recognition and phonics @SSRCStrong @WIU07 teachers explaining #scienceofreading frameworks that set the tone for a #structuredliteracy rich learning environment
Students need access to the code in order to comprehend the text. Great day of LETRS unit 3 training with @JasonStragand
Spending the last week of intervention playing games to review all students have learned this year and reading fun summer themed decodables they can take home to reread over the summer.

Teaching our students to write a story or paragraph is the end goal, not the starting point, of writing instruction. So what foundational transcription skills do students need BEFORE they can write a paragraph? Thank you J.Graham for your help with this!
