Looking forward to presenting and catching up with everyone … Dr. Elsa Cárdenas Hagan Dr. Tracy Weeden Laura Stewart Margie Gillis Dr Rebecca Tolson Amy Murdoch
One of my favorite things about #DyslexiaCon2025 is catching up with fellow literacy warriors like Louise Dechovitz and Dr. Tracy Weeden !!!
Years ago, a neuropsych told me about RAVE-O—today I met its creator, the brilliant Dr. Maryanne Wolf Her research is groundbreaking, but it’s her ability to show how literacy is a matter of life & survival that moves me most! So proud to know you, Maryanne. #DyslexiaCon2025
Wonderful start to International Dyslexia Association #dyslexiacon2025 conference with Dr. Rebecca Marks presenting on morphology! Did you know- when students think about morphology, brain regions associated with sound, meaning & structure are activated. So important!
Impt keynote by Devin Kearns at #DyslexiaCon2025: fewer rules, more practice! Every syllable should have at least one vowel, and focus on morphology using a 'peeling off' strategy.
How can the NCTM give a day long workshop on a practice with a negative effect for kids in elementary school. I wonder if a class action lawsuit will ever be filed against this group. Anna Stokke Amanda VanDerHeyden Amanda VanDerHeyden Sarah Powell #scienceofmath nctm.org/Conferences-an…
