Memorizing words isn’t effective or efficient. We have to give kids the tools they need to be successful readers. Phonemic awareness & letter sound skills are KEY! #scienceofreading

Incorporating the "science of reading" is a great marketing opportunity for Calkins, F&P. Where's the refund for the $$millions spent on defective materials? bit.ly/3DEvXFk

“If you're a parent concerned about literacy, you should be asking your superintendent, your principal, your board members, ‘Why are we using a program that got the lowest possible rating?’” said Todd Collins, who serves on the school board in Palo Alto. apmreports.org/story/2021/11/…

When I saw @missypurcell1 share that letter, I decided to write this!

Letter sound skills are essential for orthographic mapping! This is a fun way to practice💜 #scienceofreading #orthographicmapping #phonemicawareness #teachertwitter #edtech #education #literacy

But when we look back and see that Calkins (and others) actively discouraged us from teaching phonemic awareness, to minimize the teaching of "low-level skills," and to believe that magic would unfold for our students if we simply inspired them to *want* to read and write...
