Teach kids to decode so they learn to READ LIKE YOU. Don't teach 'em to guessread whole words so they just ACT like they can read like you!

"Decodable texts are important because they match a student’s level of expertise...No repetition, no predictability and definitely no guessing is needed to read the text." x.com/JohnKenny03/st…

Irony of the cross…The ultimate symbol of death and sin becomes the ultimate source of life for sinners.

Effect of the cross…We are silenced by the severity of our sin, & we are stunned by the glory of our God.

Pity of the cross…Over 6000 people groups still haven’t even heard about it. God, help us to change this.

Proud of Kristopher Torres, Sarah Shepard& Ashley Sharpe, reading Scripture at the Ouachita Commencement this morning.

For decades many kids haven't been getting the kind of reading instruction that is supported by evidence. Why IS that? forbes.com/sites/nataliew…

Struggling readers who've learned to read by sight words and context/picture cues will find that the strategies they've been using may suddenly fail them by 3rd grade. They need systematic, explicit phonics instruction and connected, decodable text. #CoreAdvocates @achievethecore
