Kicked off LETRS professional learning with half of our fifth grade teachers and sixth grade reading teachers today. Here's one small group analyzing letter names. It was a day full of knowledge building, reflecting and growing. When we know better, we do better. Lexia

LETRS Unit 2 work with another group of dedicated teachers. After learning about each of the consonant and vowel phonemes, they worked in pairs to identify the vowel phonemes in different words and discuss the phonological confusions represented in student spelling 👂 🧠 ✏️

Language is the anchor of reading comprehension. What we are comprehending IS language. Developing accurate and automatic decoding is the KEY to unlocking complex, knowledge/empathy-building texts with advanced language & syntax. I developed this infographic to demonstrate this.

We had the opportunity to hear Kareem J. Weaver speak as a keynote. He left us inspired and ready to put in the work and love to ensure each child receives the literacy instruction they deserve.
