The Literacy View podcast is dedicated to providing educators and parents with Breaking News and cutting-edge research in literacy instruction. Nicknamed by one of their listeners as the “Spice Girls of Literacy,” Faith and Judy, two veteran educators who still work in the trenches, bring their expertise, senses of humor, and passion for literacy instruction to the show, making it an engaging and informative experience for listeners. Never shying away from controversial topics and guests, and frequently disagreeing with each other, the hosts break down complex research into easy-to-understand takeaways and provide actionable solutions that teachers and parents can use in their classrooms and at home. And, they are never afraid to good-naturedly call BS or cheer on  their guests or each other when a point or item of discussion excites them. In fact, they have “BS” and “cheer” buttons at the ready for that very purpose!  With their engaging format and wealth of knowledge, Faith and Judy are sure to help you take your teaching to the next level!  It is no wonder that so many of their guests and listeners consider the Literacy View their favorite, can’t-miss podcast in the literacy space. Have fun and learn at the same time!

The Literacy View live from researchED.

VALUE:
In this episode with Jim Heal, we call out the truth most schools avoid. We are not failing because teachers are not working hard. We are failing because we keep chasing everything instead of committing to what actually works. Jim breaks down mental models, worked examples, and the science of learning in a way that actually makes sense for real classrooms. This is where research meets reality and where a lot of what schools are doing gets exposed for what it is.

PROMISE:
You will leave knowing exactly what to stop doing, what is worth doubling down on, and how to make your instruction actually stick. No more guessing. No more wasted time. Just clear, actionable moves you can use tomorrow that will actually impact student learning. No fluff. No hiding. No BS.

VALUE 🔥

This episode is about the power of strong foundations and why they matter in every subject. We break down how the science of learning applies across literacy, math, science, and social studies so you can make smarter instructional decisions every single day. You will walk away knowing exactly what to prioritize, how to spot gaps early, and how to build knowledge and skills that actually stick.

PROMISE 🎯

We are saying the quiet part out loud. If foundational skills are not solid, students will struggle no matter the subject or grade. The brain is the brain. This is a real conversation about our responsibility as educators to build and strengthen those foundations from the start so students do not fall behind later. No fluff. No blaming. Just what works.

VALUE 🔥

What if we have been thinking about small group instruction all wrong?


In this episode, Nell Duke brings the real talk on what actually matters in literacy instruction right now. We dig into the role of knowledge building, why science and social studies cannot keep getting pushed aside, and what it really means to use small group reading instruction wisely.


This is not surface-level PD. This is the kind of conversation that makes you rethink your schedule, your blocks, and what students truly need to become strong readers.

PROMISE 🎯

You will walk away knowing exactly why your literacy block may need a serious shift and how to start thinking differently about small groups, comprehension, and knowledge building.

If you have ever wondered

Are we overdoing small groups?

Are we sacrificing knowledge for skills?

What should literacy actually look like during the day?

This episode delivers answers you can actually use tomorrow.

Does Teacher Talk Really Matter? What the Evidence Shows with Dr. Yan Jiang

In this episode of The Literacy View, we sit down with Dr. Yan Jiang, Postdoctoral Scholar at the Stanford Center on Early Childhood and coauthor of a major meta analysis published in Review of Educational Research.

Her study analyzes more than one hundred studies examining the relationship between teachers’ language practices and children’s language development from preschool through third grade.

There is growing conversation in education about the role of classroom talk, oral language, and teacher interactions in shaping language development. But what does the research actually show?

We take a close look at how researchers approached this question, how teacher language practices are studied across classrooms, and what patterns begin to emerge when the evidence from many studies is examined together.

Value

In this episode we explore

• What researchers mean when they talk about teacher language practices

• How studies attempt to capture and measure classroom talk

• Why the distinction between quantity of talk and quality of interactions matters in research

• How large scale meta analyses combine findings across many different studies

• What educators should think about when hearing claims about language rich classrooms and oral language instruction

This conversation helps unpack how research in this area is conducted and why interpreting findings about classroom language requires nuance.

Promise

In this episode we promise to take you inside a new meta analysis that examines more than one hundred studies on teacher language practices and children’s language development.

Together we unpack how researchers study classroom talk, what they actually mean when they talk about teacher language practices, and why measuring something as complex as classroom interaction is not as straightforward as it might sound.

You will walk away with a clearer understanding of how this research was conducted, what kinds of teacher language practices researchers are examining, and how educators should think about claims connecting teacher talk and student language growth.

You hear firsthand what the research actually revealed about how children learn to read, where implementation has gone wrong, and why misunderstanding the science continues to create confusion in classrooms. This is not secondhand interpretation. It is direct insight into the evidence, the history behind it, and the consequences of getting it wrong. You walk away with deeper clarity about literacy acquisition and stronger conviction about what matters most.


Promise

We will not water this down.

We will not rewrite history.

We will not soften the hard truths about research and implementation.


We will examine the science.

We will confront the misinterpretations.

We will connect the evidence to real classroom practice.

So Why Are So Many Kids Still Struggling? | Dominic Wyse Phonics Was Supposed to Fix This. So Why Are So Many Kids Still Struggling? | Dominic Wyse EP.156🌶️ 

Value:

This episode breaks down the article everyone’s talking about and asks the hard question it raises: If synthetic phonics has been mandated for years, why haven’t outcomes for struggling readers changed? We talk directly with Dominic Wyse about the research, the data, and what gets lost when literacy policy becomes rigid instead of responsive.

Promise:

You’ll leave with a clearer understanding of what the research actually says, where policy oversimplifies reading instruction, and why real classrooms demand more than one approach. No slogans. No extremes. Just an honest, uncomfortable conversation that respects teachers, centers kids, and refuses to pretend this debate is settled.

]]> EP.156🌶️ 

Value:

This episode breaks down the article everyone’s talking about and asks the hard question it raises: If synthetic phonics has been mandated for years, why haven’t outcomes for struggling readers changed? We talk directly with Dominic Wyse about the research, the data, and what gets lost when literacy policy becomes rigid instead of responsive.

Promise:

You’ll leave with a clearer understanding of what the research actually says, where policy oversimplifies reading instruction, and why real classrooms demand more than one approach. No slogans. No extremes. Just an honest, uncomfortable conversation that respects teachers, centers kids, and refuses to pretend this debate is settled.

We had a surprise guest: Mark Seidenberg!🙌🏻

💜 Value & Promise

In this episode, educators are invited into a research conversation that is still unfolding.

You’ll hear Mark Seidenberg discuss his latest article while educators engage in real time with questions, reactions, and pushback.

This episode offers

• A window into how researchers think aloud as ideas are examined, questioned, and clarified

• Space to sit with uncertainty rather than rushing to conclusions

• Insight into the complexity surrounding structured literacy, overteaching, and instructional balance

• A shared starting point for continued inquiry


Our promise for this episode is transparency.

We are actively working through what the research suggests and what it may mean for classrooms. Many listeners are asking for deeper research and greater clarity around implementation, and we hear you. We will be digging further into the evidence and continuing this conversation in future episodes.


If you value thoughtful exploration, intellectual honesty, and research discussed in community, this episode delivers.

No BS.

Just real research, real questions, and a commitment to keep going. 💜🙌🏻

Your thoughts?

“Although the authorities in this field usually acknowledge the obvious point that nondyslexics do not need as much instruction as dyslexics, in practice the adoption of ‘structured literacy’ has led to overteaching.” - Mark Seidenberg

This is us (Faith Borkowsky and Judy Boksner Damski) and The Literacy View-Real Teachers Letting Loose community, in an open, uncensored chat digging into his latest article together.

Educators get a clear explanation of what background knowledge truly is and what it is not. You will learn how to separate fact from fiction and understand what the research actually supports without jargon or confusion.

By the end of this episode, educators will be able to spot misinformation quickly, understand the real story behind background knowledge, and feel more confident using evidence aligned practices in their classrooms.


No fluff. No confusion. No BS.

Can your school psychologist evaluate your child for dyslexia?

Many families are told to seek private testing but that is not the full story 🧐

We asked the big question: Is the Phonemic Awareness Guide actually accurate, or is it just another round of literacy fluff?

In this episode, Faith and I throw down a Science of Reading truth bomb 💣 and break it all the way down. No jargon. No sugarcoating. Just what works, what doesn’t, and how to make phonemic awareness stick for kids.

Here’s where we go:

🔥 Why phonemic awareness is non-negotiable for K–1, ELLs, and struggling readers

🔥 The quick 5-minute routines we use for blending, segmenting, and deletion

🔥 The myths we’re done with (like “PA stops at blending”) — and what the research really says

🔥 How we do error correction that teaches without shaming

🔥 Why honoring dialect differences matters in every classroom

🔥 How deletion + substitution fuel orthographic mapping so kids actually remember words


This isn’t another PD handout. It’s the No-BS educator’s guide to phonemic awareness — practical, research-backed, and classroom-tested.

🔗 Resources We Mention

What’s the worst phonemic awareness myth you still hear in PD or curriculum training? Drop it in the comments or tag us @TheLiteracyView. We want your truth bombs.

What makes the Big Sky Literacy Summit unlike any other literacy conference? 

Instead of the usual whirlwind of rushed sessions and surface-level takeaways, Big Sky offers:

  • Deeper learning experiences designed for reflection and real growth
  • Intimate connections with thought leaders and fellow educators
  • Practical, actionable insights that go beyond theory
  • A re-energizing atmosphere that restores your passion for literacy instruction

Nell and Terrie share how the summit was built with teachers in mind—prioritizing community, authenticity, and transformation over quantity. Whether you’re a classroom teacher, administrator, or literacy advocate, this conversation will leave you rethinking what professional learning should feel like.

Charles Hulme and Maggie Snowling share decades of research on reading development, dyslexia, and oral language. They explain why knowing how to teach is as vital as what to teach, clear up myths that can derail instruction, and spotlight evidence from interventions like NELI. Research shows that boosting spoken language early provides children with more resources to apply during independent and teacher directed learning, leading to stronger reading and broader academic success. The evidence is sufficient and the tools now exist to assess and teach spoken language in the early grades.”


Major Takeaways from the Research:


  • Boosting oral language early leads to gains beyond language, impacting reading and overall learning.
  • Instructional success depends on both what is taught and how it is taught.
  • Myths and faulty beliefs can reduce the effectiveness of reading interventions.
  • Tools like NELI provide scalable, evidence-based ways to strengthen early spoken language skills.

Dr. Leslie Dr. Laud brings decades of experience as a researcher, educator, and consultant focused on improving writing outcomes, especially for students who struggle. We dive into:

  • What executive skills are and why they matter in writing
  • How ThinkSRSD helps students regulate their emotions and thinking while writing
  • How educators can shift from “assigning writing” to teaching writing
  • Tools to build independence 

Dr. Leslie Laud is a national educational consultant, author, and founder of ThinkSRSD, a leading organization supporting schools in implementing the Self-Regulated Strategy Development model. She has authored multiple books and articles on writing instruction, most recently Executive Skills and Writing Instruction: Developing Self-Regulated, Thinking Writers.

The One About…
The Reading Recovery Lawsuit with Steve Dykstra

The Reading Recovery Council of North America filed a lawsuit against Ohio Governor Mike DeWine. Dr. Steve Dykstra joins us to discuss this breaking news!
We also asked Steve to respond to Bruce Howlett’s revised blog that originally appeared on the Learning by Design website. Howlett and Jan Wasowicz have joined  forces to ignite a “Reading Shift” that pulls the best practices from both Balanced Literacy and Structured Literacy. Dr. Steve Dykstra has worked as a psychologist for  over thirty years in the public sector. He is a founding member of the Wisconsin Reading Coalition and Vice President of the Coalition for Reading Excellence.
Reading Recovery Press Release https://readingrecovery.org/press-release/
“The Reading Shift – Elevating Literacy Goals, Methods, and Discourse, in Unison”
By Bruce Howlett and Jan Wasowicz, Ph.D.

Memorable Quote:
“We have a choice – continue to debate traditional methods that haven’t produced widespread
and enduring literacy gains or excitedly embrace newer and deeper methods that provide a
path to near universal literacy gains across the English-speaking world.”

The One About…
Nell Duke: What We Truly Know About the Teaching of Reading
What does research tell us about cueing; what does research tell us about phonics instruction; what does research instruction tell us about teaching areas other than phonics; what does research tell us about causes of reading difficulty; how do psychometricians set cut scores for NAEP and other assessments; and what about decodable texts? Nell Duke shares her wealth of knowledge with us and gives us the real stories grounded in decades of research.

The Decodable Debate: What No One’s Telling You-(128)

🎙️ The Literacy View

📺 Watch Now: https://youtu.be/abe1gkQVYHc?si=q20JfUk6WRYDjh3z

Article Discussed:https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/lit.12368

🚨 Real Talk: Decodables Are Everywhere—But Are We Using Them Right?

Districts are buying them. Teachers are assigning them. Publishers are hyping them. But beneath the buzz, the real question is: Are decodables making a difference—or are we just following a script?


In this episode,  we go beyond the phonics fanfare to ask the hard questions:

  • Are we over-relying on decodables at the expense of comprehension?
  • What makes a decodable text actually effective?
  • Are we seeing real gains—or just following mandates?

🔥 Inside This Episode:

  • What the research actually says about decodables
  • Common misuse in classrooms—and how to course-correct
  • The myth of “just give them decodables and they’ll learn to read”
  • How to balance decoding with real engagement and language development
  • Classroom-tested advice for making decodables work with your instruction not instead of it

👀 Why It Matters:

Too many classrooms are being told decodables are the magic bullet. But without planning, intention, and skilled instruction, they can turn into robotic routines with little payoff. This episode unpacks the nuance—and gives educators permission to ask for more.


💬 Quote Worth Repeating:

“A decodable text isn’t a lesson plan. It’s a tool—and only as good as the hands that use it.”

👩‍🏫 For Educators Who Are:

  • Feeling pressure to use decodables but unsure how
  • Balancing district mandates with what students actually need
  • Ready to cut through the noise and focus on what work.

Takeaway Tuesday LIVE! (Recap of 122)

Hosts: Faith Borkowsky & Judy Boksner
Guests: Viewers + Live Q&A with Trina Spencer & Doug Petersen
📺 Watch the Replay: YouTube Link:https://youtu.be/fl8goSw6THE?si=Cwt5fIEiJxHPlet7

💡 What’s Inside:
This Takeaway Tuesday episode revisits key ideas from Episode 122, where we tackled the false debate between strategy instruction and knowledge building. Listeners joined us live to share their biggest takeaways—and then we turned it over to two literacy legends:
Dr. Trina Spencer – https://absc.ku.edu/Trina-Spencer
Dr. Doug Petersen – https://www.childlanguagespecialist.org/welcome-douglas-bryan-petersen/
Together, we dug into:
Why BOTH strategy & knowledge matter
Real classroom applications (beyond theory)
The harm of sticking to one “camp”
How oral language and writing fit into the big picture
🔥 Soundbites:
“It’s not about picking sides—it’s about serving kids.”
— Dr. Trina Spencer
“Ignoring either side of literacy is a disservice to teachers and students.”
— Faith Borkowsky


🛠️ Practical Takeaways for Educators

✔️ Start with oral language routines early and often
✔️ Build knowledge sets across texts—stop treating reading as isolated events
✔️ Make vocabulary instruction explicit and connected
✔️ Replace “skill & drill” with discourse, writing, and reflection

✔️ Decodables are essential for building early reading skills—but students also need rich texts that grow vocabulary, knowledge, and comprehension.

This episode might challenge everything you once believed! 

In this evidence-grounded episode, we kick off with Jill Barshay’s March 2025 Hechinger Report deep-dive—“Proof Points: Reading Comprehension in the Classroom” (read it here)—which shows teachers spend under 25 percent of their reading block on genuine comprehension work and almost zero time on text-based talk.

Doug Petersen and Trina Spencer—classroom teachers turned education scientists and founders of Language Dynamics Group—use those “proof points” as a launchpad to share why they walked away from one-size-fits-none interventions and built something better:

❤️ Their evidence-first origin: witnessing multilingual and economically diverse learners get lost in decoding drills led them to found tools (CUBED, PEARL, DYMOND, Story Champs®) rooted in solid research evidence—and designed to be Implementation Ready, not extra paperwork.

🧠 Research you can see: unpacking Scarborough’s Reading Rope alongside Beck & McKeown’s vocabulary studies, they demonstrate how just minutes of data-backed, teacher-led discussions unlock deeper thinking, richer text connections, and measurable comprehension gains.

If you’ve ever stared at comprehension questions and wondered why they flop—or if you’re craving talk strategies backed by hard evidence that actually fit into a busy teaching day—this episode is your MVP playbook. Tune in and let language—and real, research-driven evidence—lead the way! ❤️❤️❤️

Literacy in Community with LINC NYC

The powerful influence of early language on later reading suggests that language intervention programs combining phonological, morphological and semantic activities may help to reduce the incidence of reading problems.

Article- Journal of Research in Reading - Wiley Online Library
https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.1111/1467-9817.12312

LINC Guests: Josh Barocas, Director of Early Literacy  at LINC, where he works with his team to develop and deliver literacy workshops for parents and educators. As a college student, Josh developed an interest in neuroscience, psychology and linguistics and spent most of his time interning on various research projects across these fields. A job managing a language development laboratory revealed his passion for working with children, and he soon began teaching elementary school. Under the mentorship of a veteran learning specialist, Josh's interests coalesced into a career in early literacy. After several years teaching as a literacy specialist and completing a master's in literacy, Josh moved out of the school setting to work as Program Director at CUNY Reading Corps, where he trained college students, graduate students, teachers and Universal Literacy coaches in research-based reading interventions. He is grateful to bring his experience to the community setting in his work with LINC.

Laura Walsh, Chief Program Officer is a seasoned leader in the non-profit sector and a dedicated literacy specialist with a Master’s Degree in Special Education and Literacy from St. John’s University. With deep expertise in early literacy, adult learning theory, and educator training, she has spent her career championing equity through literacy access for all—starting with our youngest learners. Laura has trained Universal Literacy Coaches across New York City and served as a Program Manager for the Literacy Trust, where she worked to strengthen early literacy initiatives. Currently, as Chief Program Officer at Literacy Inc. (LINC), she leads innovative programs that invest in children, families, and entire communities—including educators—to create a culture of reading.

Batter up!! 

There are research ***findings*** and then there are interpretations of research results.


The famous baseball study is an example of how interpretation became the research result. 🤨


It’s not what you think…

🤔 Huh?????

That’s right. 

Dan Reynolds and Courtney Hattan conducted a systematic review of studies using baseball as a proxy for knowledge necessary for reading comprehension. Such claims were put to the test! 

It’s a HOME RUN! 🧢⚾️🏟️

Bio-Dan Reynolds is an influential educational researcher best known for his contributions to the study of reading comprehension and literacy. Along with his colleague Lauren Leslie, Reynolds co-authored the landmark Baseball Study in 1987, which explored the impact of background knowledge on comprehension. In the study, students with prior knowledge of baseball were able to better understand and recall a passage about the sport, regardless of their reading ability. This groundbreaking research revealed the critical role that familiarity with content plays in the ability to comprehend texts, challenging the traditional view that reading ability alone determines comprehension. Reynolds’ work has had a lasting impact on literacy research, underscoring the importance of integrating students’ prior knowledge and interests into reading instruction. His findings have influenced educational strategies that seek to bridge the gap between students’ lived experiences and the content they encounter in school. As an advocate for more inclusive and accessible educational practices, Reynolds continues to be a respected figure in the field of literacy and learning.

The Effects of Morphological Instruction on Literacy Outcomes for Children in English-Speaking Countries: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Findings do support the inclusion of morphology instruction in programs of reading and spelling instruction. 

 

Morphology instruction was combined with other elements such as vocabulary instruction, reading practice, or spelling practice. The effects of multi-component approaches may be more than the sum of their parts.

Meta on Morphology! What Should We Do?

The Effects of Morphological Instruction on Literacy Outcomes for Children in English-Speaking Countries: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Findings do support the inclusion of morphology instruction in programs of reading and spelling instruction. 

 

Morphology instruction was combined with other elements such as vocabulary instruction, reading practice, or spelling practice. The effects of multi-component approaches may be more than the sum of their parts.

Disciplinary Literacy: Integrating Literacy Instruction in All Subjects, Grades 6-12

Disciplinary Literacy: Integrating Literacy Instruction in All Subjects, Grades 6-12. (27 pages) This Keys to Literacy white paper, authored by Joan Sedita, describes disciplinary literacy – what it is, how it is different from basic reading skills and content literacy (i.e., general reading skills and strategies), and the role that content area teachers can play in helping students develop the literacy skills needed to support content learning.

The One About…

Does the Science of Reading Include Middle and High School? 

With James and Dianne Murphy

 

Article:

“Does the science of reading include middle school?” – 

Tim Shanahan

January 6, 2024

https://www.shanahanonliteracy.com/blog/does-the-science-of-reading-include-middle-school

 

Teacher Question:

What does the science prioritize for middle level ELA instruction? Is there a point when teaching into a phonics gap for students does not have a payoff? With limited time in a middle school classroom, I am thinking about what needs to be prioritized.

Dawn De Lorenzo Bio:

I am dual-certified general and special education teacher with 24 years experience. I have taught students from PreK through Grade 8. The majority of the students that I have served throughout my career had language-based learning disabilities such as dyslexia. I am a CERI Certified Structured Language Teacher. I have my MA in Curriculum and Instruction and my Ed.S. in Education Leadership, Policy and Management. 

 

Last year, I was a Teacher Leader Policy Fellow with JerseyCAN and worked to champion several policies to strengthen literacy in New Jersey. JerseyCAN awarded me with an Excellence in Advocacy Award for my work.  I was second place in Nessy's 2024 Teacher of the Year Dyslexia Awareness Award.

 

This year I started my own tutoring business, Lighthouse Literacy Solutions, where I can serve students and their families' needs without all of the red tape that entangles educators in public schools today.

Stacey Klein and Max

Stacey Klein is a fierce parent advocate who took on Minnesota’s most affluent school district to fight for her son’s right to learn to read. Her son completed 3rd-grade with a Kindergarten reading level. Without her advocacy and intervention, he was on a trajectory to finish 12th-grade reading at a 4th-grade level. Stacey's family navigated years of delays, denials, a due process hearing, and federal lawsuits in the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals, ultimately costing them $300,000 in educational and legal fees. Despite the district’s appeals, her son received all of his court-ordered services, worked hard, is now reading at grade level, and is on track to graduate with his peers. Today, Stacey relentlessly advocates for students with learning disabilities like dyslexia, committed to ensuring no family has tofight the same battle her family did to guarantee their child learns to read in school.

The One About…

SRSD Plus Oral Language, Handwriting, and Spelling with Dr. Young Kim

 

Dr. Young-Suk Kim and SRSD founder, Dr. Karen Harris, developed an integrated approach for Kindergarten to Second Grade students that takes the well-regarded SRSD framework and strengthens the foundational skills for beginner writers. This fascinating work is groundbreaking, and the results are impressive!

 

Young’s recommendation:

“When teaching reading and writing subskills, make the link between reading and writing explicit and visible. Explicitly point out how target skills and strategies can be used in reading and writing contexts.”

 

Dr. Young Kim bio:

Young-Suk Grace Kim is a professor and the senior associate dean at the School of Education, University of California, Irvine. A former classroom teacher in San Francisco, Kim’s scholarship focuses on understanding language and literacy development and effective instruction for racially, ethnically, economically, and linguistically diverse children, and helping them build strong foundations to support their success in school and beyond. Her areas of research include reading comprehension, reading fluency, listening comprehension and oral language, dyslexia, higher-order cognitive skills, written composition, and reading–writing relations. She has worked extensively with monolingual children from various linguistic backgrounds (e.g., English, Korean, Chinese, Spanish, Kiswahili) and multilingual children in the United States. Her research has been supported by the Institute of Education Sciences, the U.S. Department of Education, the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, and the National Science Foundation. She was a recipient of the 2012 Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers by President Barack Obama.

 

Kim is currently serving as editor-in-chief for Scientific Studies of Reading and chair of the Vocabulary Special Interest Group for the American Educational Research Association.

A former classroom teacher in San Francisco, Kim’s scholarship focuses on understanding language and literacy development and effective instruction for racially, ethnically, economically, and linguistically diverse children, and helping them build strong foundations to support their success in school and beyond. Her areas of research include reading comprehension, reading fluency, listening comprehension and oral language, dyslexia, higher-order cognitive skills, written composition, and reading–writing relations. She has worked extensively with monolingual children from various linguistic backgrounds (e.g., English, Korean, Chinese, Spanish, Kiswahili) and multilingual children in the United States. Her research has been supported by the Institute of Education Sciences, the U.S. Department of Education, the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, and the National Science Foundation. She was a recipient of the 2012 Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers by President Barack Obama.

 

Kim is currently serving as editor-in-chief for Scientific Studies of Reading and chair of the Vocabulary Special Interest Group for the American Educational Research Association.

The One About…

Are we “Sold a Story” on Science of Reading Trade Books?

Quote:

“Considering a key theme of ‘Sold a Story’ is the danger of following edu-gurus, I find it *very* interesting that a lot of the SoR crowd all seem to cite the same handful of folks-some of whom have very little expertise in the stuff they’re writing trade books about.” – 

 

Trevor Aleo is a teacher, researcher, and consultant. 

“As a full-time high school teacher and doctoral student, I find myself in a unique position -with one foot firmly planted in the classroom and the other in the world of research. One of things I’m most passionate about is making all of the incredible theories and scholarship out there more accessible and actionable for practitioners.”

Report Cards: Parents are in the Dark

“When parents are in the know, they take action.” – Sonya Thomas

 

Time Magazine:

https://time.com/6308834/american-parents-how-their-kids-doing-in-school/

 

Nashville Propel:

Article talks about a white paper released by Nashville Propel in June: Because of positive report cards, 78% of the Nashville parents surveyed believe their kids are reading at grade level. Meanwhile, data reveals that only 28.5% of students across MNPS—and only 19.6% of Black students—are. (MNPS stands for Metro Nashville Public Schools.)

Strict Synthetic Phonics: What Does That Mean?

with Debbie Hepplewhite 

Is reading instruction that focuses exclusively on learning the code in the first weeks of the school year, without any additional activities such as memorization or global recognition of non-decodable words, more effective in acquiring good fluency and comprehension?

Lifting literacy Through Handwriting Instruction with Shawn Datchuk

 

“Handwriting can be an effective way for students to learn important early reading and writing skills. As noted in a recent systematic review, handwriting instruction during kindergarten can improve both writing and reading outcomes, such as knowledge of letter names and sounds, spelling, and word reading (Ray et al., 2022). Indeed, research suggests a close link between writing and reading overall, including a strong relationship between the development of early writing and reading skills, such as spelling and word reading (Kim et al., 2024). In spite of these ties, handwriting is rarely mentioned in the national conversation on how to improve the reading performance of elementary students”

 

Dr. Shawn Datchuk Bio:

https://irrc.education.uiowa.edu/people/shawn-datchuk

 

Shawn Datchuk is the director of the Iowa Reading Research Center and a faculty member in the University of Iowa College of Education. Under his direction, Shawn aims to ensure that the IRRC’s efforts: (a) make it easier for teachers to teach reading and (b) make it easier for students to learn how to read and use reading to learn. He works with IRRC staff and college faculty to achieve these aims by conducting research, providing technical assistance to schools, and translating research findings for teachers and caregivers. As a former K-12 special education teacher, elementary teacher, director of special education, and academic performance director, he believes all students should have access to high-quality literacy instruction. He received his Master of Education and Doctor of Philosophy in special education from Pennsylvania State University. Outside of his work at the center, you can find him spending time with his family at a local park, pool, or museum.

New Research Study on thinkSRSD with Dr. Leslie Laud, Nate Joseph, and Robert Mitchell

Article:
ThinkSRSD A Secondary Analysis Cohort Investigation [Working Paper]
July 2024

Conflict of Interest Statement:
The first and second authors of this manuscript were contracted by ThinkSRSD to independently evaluate the efficacy of ThinkSRSD. Both authors received financial compensation for their work. However, a contract was established between the first author and ThinkSRSD outlining ethical practices, including a commitment to uphold the principles of ethical and open science. This contract mandated that all research outcomes, regardless of results, be shared publicly.

Quote:
“Out of the 97 schools analyzed, every single treatment school, or schools averaged as a group within a district if the full-district took part, outperformed their control cohort.”

Dr.Leslie Laud
Dr. Leslie Laud supports teachers, schools, districts and states nationally with strengthening writing instruction. She has taught in both general and special education, and worked as a principal. She holds a doctorate from Columbia University, where she was mentored by Dr. Judith Birsh in explicit reading instruction, Dr. Lyn Corno in self-regulated learning and Dr. Linda Darling-Hammond in school change. She has served as co-PI and lead PI on federally-funded large research studies of writing instruction, publishes empirical studies in peer-reviewed journals and presents frequently at national conferences.

Should children sit in rows facing the teacher?


Does the task determine the seating arrangement?

Ep.81-The One About…

College Students Aren’t Reading with Donna Hejtmanek

 

Article: “The College Kids Are Not All Right”

Reports from professors point to an alarming decline in cognitive capabilities, even at selective institutions by Natalie Wexler

June 2, 2024

https://nataliewexler.substack.com/p/the-college-kids-are-not-all-right

 

Quote:

“Students are intimidated by anything over 10 pages and seem to walk away from readings of as little as 20 pages with no real understanding.”

 

“We are in new territory when even highly motivated honors students struggle to grasp the basic argument of a 20-page article.”

 

Why is this happening? What are the reasons for the decline? 

 

Donna Hejtmanek bio:

Donna Hejtmanek (hite-man-ik) retired after 41 years of teaching special education and serving as a reading specialist-interventionist. She served as president of the Literacy Task Force of Northern Wisconsin, was appointed by Gov. Scott Walker in 2014 to Wisconsin’s Read to Lead Literacy Council, served as the legislative chair of the International Dyslexia Association and served on The Legislative Council Study Committee on the Identification and Management of Dyslexia in 2018, resulting in Wisconsin’s first dyslexia bill, Act 86, signed into legislation in 2019. Hejtmanek was awarded the Herb Kohl Teacher Fellowship Award in 2016.  Donna retired in 2018.  In retirement, she spends her days creating professional development opportunities for teachers on her Facebook group, Science of Reading—What I Should Have Learned in College, and is a co-owner of Credentials Unlimited, providing opportunities for non-credit micro-credentials.

The One About…

Curriculum Implementation with Robert Pondiscio and Rivet Education

 

Article: “Taking Curriculum Implementation Seriously”

https://fordhaminstitute.org/national/commentary/taking-curriculum-implementation-seriously#

 

 

Quote: “This involved multiple phases, which Rivet categorizes as ‘exploration; program installation; initial implementation; consistent implementation; and innovation and sustainability.’”

 

Robert Pondiscio Bio:

Robert Pondiscio is a senior visiting fellow at the Thomas B. Fordham Institute and a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute (AEI)

 

He writes and speaks extensively on education and education-reform issues, with an emphasis on literacy, curriculum, civic education, and classroom practice. His 2019 book, How the Other Half Learns, based on a year of observations at New York City’s Success Academy network of charter schools, was praised as “morally disturbing” and “unsparingly honest” by the New York Times. After twenty years in journalism, including senior positions at TIME and Business Week, Robert became a fifth-grade teacher at a struggling South Bronx public school in 2002. He subsequently served as vice president for the Core Knowledge Foundation, taught civics at Democracy Prep Public Schools, a network of high-performing charter schools based in Harlem, New York, and was a Senior Fellow and Vice President for External Affairs here at Fordham. 

 

Robert’s articles and op-ed columns on education have appeared in the Wall Street Journal, the Atlantic, the New York Daily News, Education Next, and dozens of other publications. A frequent speaker and expert guest on education issues, he has appeared on the Fox News Channel, CNN, and elsewhere.

As co-founder and principal consultant at Rivet Education, Annie works with state and local education agencies to develop and execute cohesive academic strategies to scale the use of high-quality instructional materials with a specific focus on the communications needed to execute those strategies well. Most recently, she has been supporting the Delaware, New Mexico, and Maryland Departments of Education with the implementation of HQIM.
Before founding Rivet, Annie served as the Director of Communications for the Louisiana Department of Education, where she managed and led educator relations for the agency. During her seven years with the agency, she developed and executed state-wide and national public relations strategies related to the state’s academic plan, impacting over 100 school systems and 50,000 educators state-wide. Her passion for starting Rivet lies in the impact that she witnessed the state’s alignment of standards, curriculum, assessments, and professional development have on schools and school systems across the state.
Annie holds a B.A. from Louisiana State University. View Annie’s full resume.

Shanahan on Literacy Article:
What About Textbook Reviews?
https://www.shanahanonliteracy.com/blog/what-about-the-textbook-reviews

between reading and writing, literacy in the disciplines, and improvement of reading
achievement.
Tim is past president of the International Literacy Association. He served as a member
of the Advisory Board of the National Institute for Literacy under Presidents George W.
Bush and Barack Obama, and he helped lead the National Reading Panel, convened at
the request of Congress to evaluate research on the teaching reading, a major influence
on reading education. He chaired two other federal research review panels: the National
Literacy Panel for Language Minority Children and Youth, and the National Early
Literacy Panel, and helped write the Common Core State Standards.
He was inducted to the Reading Hall of Fame in 2007 and is a former first-grade

Christopher Peak Bio:
Christopher Peak is an investigative reporter who covers education for APM Reports. He co-reported “Sold a Story,” a podcast about a disproven approach to teaching reading used in

two Scripps Howard awards, and it was nominated for a Peabody. Following its release, at least 16 states passed new laws about reading instruction, and school districts nationwide, including New York City, announced they would no longer use programs covered in the podcast. Peak
previously covered schools for the New Haven Independent. He was a finalist for the Education
Writers Association’s national award for beat reporting, and he won numerous regional awards,
including Connecticut SPJ&#39;s First Amendment Award. Peak has also written for Nation Swell, the Point Reyes Light, Newsday and the San Francisco Public Press.

The One About…
TRL Curriculum Evaluation Guidelines with Dr. Maria Murray and Kari Kurto
Here is a link to the Curriculum Evaluation Guidelines:
https://www.thereadingleague.org/curriculum-evaluation-guidelines/
When reviewing curricula for Tier I instruction, it is essential to ensure they do not include instructional practices that are not aligned with the scientific evidence base of how children learn to read.
The Curriculum Evaluation Guidelines are designed to highlight any non-aligned practices, or
“red flags,” that may be present. Here is a landing page with more information on the Curriculum Navigation Reports:
https://www.thereadingleague.org/media/introducing-the-reading-leagues-curriculum-navigation-reports/ Each report provides an in-depth examination of each curriculum’s components based on evidence-aligned practices. One of the reports’ unique strengths is their emphasis on identifying ‘red flag’ practices—those that do not align with the scientific evidence base. These reports are the only ones that prioritize identifying practices that could prevent students from
developing skilled reading.
Maria S. Murray is the founder, CEO and President of The Reading League. A pioneer in the “science of reading” movement, she has been active in this field for more than 20 years. Prior
to founding The Reading League, Maria was an associate professor at SUNY Oswego where she
taught courses related to literacy assessment and intervention for 10 years.

The One About-Speech to Print Flaws with Lyn Stone
Quotes:
“I’m not saying you’re in a cult, but if you call yourself a ‘Brand Name’ practitioner/school/trainer, there’s a bit of a problem. And that problem occurs when your method is touted as the method to end all methods. That problem occurs when the only tool in your toolbox is fairly blunt, and when you’re expressly forbidden to use ‘outside’ tools even though you know you should.”
“They identify so closely with the brand, that they become blind to its flaws and instead turn in on themselves when the flaws become apparent.”

specialist practitioners to deliver high quality literacy intervention at Tiers 2 and 3, and a team of

Is ‘Sold a Story’ an incomplete and oversimplified picture of reading?
Nick Covington’s view
“My goal with this piece is to capture the questions and criticisms that I have not just about the narrative of Sold A Story but of the broader movement toward “The Science of Reading,” and bring in other evidence and perspectives that inform my own. I hope to make the case that “The Science of Reading” is not a useful label to describe the multiple goals of literacy; that investment in teacher professionalization is inoculation against being Sold A Story; and that the unproductive and divisive Reading Wars actually make it more difficult for us to think about
how to cultivate literate kids.” – Nick Covington Nick Covington bio:
Nick is the creative director for the Human Restoration Project and former high school Social Studies teacher in Iowa public Schools. He promotes progressive education across the board. Nick aims to reestablish the idea of what school could be to one of student-centered success that relies on their ideas and knowledge instead of a dictated “future-ready” curriculum.

Don’t Discard Comprehension Strategies with Jennifer Buckingham
“The arguments against teaching comprehension skills and strategies are often framed in these ways: 1) Comprehension skills/strategies are not generic, transferable competencies … so it is a waste of time to teach them explicitly.
2) Reading comprehension is highly dependent on background knowledge … so an evidence-based approach to reading comprehension is to always embed instruction in a knowledge-building context.
These two statements are only partly true.” – Jennifer Buckingham
Article: Don’t Discard Comprehension Strategies
June 22, 2023
https://fivefromfive.com.au/blog/dont-discard-comprehension-strategies/
Bio:“Dr Jennifer Buckingham OAM is Director of Strategy and Senior Research Fellow at MultiLit, and Director of the Five from Five Project.
Jennifer is the founder of the Five from Five project which provides evidence-based information on effective reading instruction. Her PhD research was on effective instruction for struggling readers. She has provided advice on reading instruction, curriculum and policy to the NSW,
Victorian, South Australian and federal governments and was the chair of the expert advisory group to the federal government on a Year 1 literacy and numeracy assessment. Jennifer works with systems, schools and teachers to improve literacy instruction and assessment. She is a board member of the Australian Institute for Teaching and School Leadership, an affiliate member of the La Trobe University SOLAR Lab and a member of the National Catholic Education Commission’s Standing Committee on Educational Excellence.”

What does research tell us about cueing; what does research tell us about phonics instruction; what does research instruction tell us about teaching areas other than phonics; what does research tell us about causes of reading difficulty; how do psychometricians set cut scores for NAEP and other assessments; and what about decodable texts?

The Reading Recovery Lawsuit with Steve Dykstra

The Reading Recovery Council of North America filed a lawsuit against Ohio Governor Mike DeWine. Dr. Steve Dykstra joins us to discuss this breaking news!
We also asked Steve to respond to Bruce Howlett’s revised blog that originally appeared on the Learning by Design website. Howlett and Jan Wasowicz have joined  forces to ignite a “Reading Shift” that pulls the best practices from both Balanced Literacy and Structured Literacy. Dr. Steve Dykstra has worked as a psychologist for  over thirty years in the public sector. He is a founding member of the Wisconsin Reading Coalition and Vice President of the Coalition for Reading Excellence.

“The Reading Shift – Elevating Literacy Goals, Methods, and Discourse, in Unison”
By Bruce Howlett and Jan Wasowicz, Ph.D.

Memorable Quote:
“We have a choice – continue to debate traditional methods that haven’t produced widespread
and enduring literacy gains or excitedly embrace newer and deeper methods that provide a
path to near universal literacy gains across the English-speaking world.”

“How Should We Combine Reading and Writing?” by Timothy Shanahan
Important quote:
“Given the extensive overlaps, it should be evident that combined instruction would be a lot
more efficient. When a school is trying to accomplish higher achievement that kind of efficiency
and teaching power is indispensable.”

Multicomponent Literacy Instruction with Bruce Howlett
Article:
Our Choice: Rapidly Translate, Evaluate and Adopt Innovative Literacy Methods or Prolong the Reading Wars
Bruce Howlett with Caitlin S. Howlett, Ph.D.
September 6, 2023
(Opinions presented are those of the guest authors and not necessarily those of SPELL-Links |
Learning By Design. They are presented to generate new insights, critical thinking, and solutions for educators and learners.)
Excerpt:
“As we will see, scholars have questioned the major points of contention — explicit teaching versus implicit learning, and word recognition versus meaning – and found them to be false dichotomies; what the two camps see as opposing concepts are so interdependent as to be inseparable. From this fresh perspective these thought leaders have crafted a new path forward for developmental literacy instruction.
This refreshing perspective has been hiding in plain sight, with its transformative concepts and methods wholly absorbed into the preexisting beliefs and values of both camps. So too, has a solution to the other pressing literacy improvement issue, the lack of a process to rapidly translate and evaluate innovative research into activities that any teacher could successfully use with any student.
We have a choice – continue to debate illusionary conflicts, keep talking past each other and attempting to convert the opposition to our side, while pushing for more time-consuming training — or we can move forward, embracing concepts and methods that clearly supersede – but do not negate – our present beliefs, values and practices.” – Bruce and Caitlin Howlett, co-
authors of Sparking the Reading Shift

Bio:
Bruce Howlett applies his long experience in biological research at Cornell University
when developing innovative instruction for his special education students. For over 30
years, Bruce has worked with literacy researchers, speech therapists, and reading
teachers to create innovative instruction for long-struggling readers.
Sparking the Reading Shift is his fifth project.
Bruce believes in the power of innovative methods as his own difficulties with reading
fluency, spelling and listening dissipated when, at the age of 40, he began working with a speech therapist on phonemic awareness lessons for their mutual students.
Bruce is currently working on Sparking the Fluency Shift which combines 15 rehearsal
activities that allow the student to practice challenging words and phrases before reading short stories that are arranged by Lexile Level.

Jake Sussman, founder of Superpower Mentors, struggled with learning disabilities as a child

Missy’s youngest son, now eleven-years-old, was given the RR intervention in first grade, so she has a lot to say as a parent advocating for Structured Literacy.

Judy Boksner, a co-host on The Literacy View, has been in the education field for over 25 years. She is still very active in her field and in the trenches on a daily basis. Judy was trained in Reading Recovery back in 2013.  She recognizes the inherent problems but also values certain aspects of her former training. She has devoted the last seven years diving deep into structured literacy and explicit instruction. Judy is trained in Orton Gillingham, Fundations, and additional  structured literacy programs and interventions.

Faith Borkowsky taught first grade and has tutored Reading Recovery “graduates” who still needed intensive intervention.

The focus of tonight's episode is based on the infographic: https://readingrecovery.org/scarboroughs-rope-and-reading-recovery/
About Missy Purcell:
Missy Purcell is the co-founder of Gwinnett Advocates for Dyslexia, a grassroots organization that advocates for evidenced based instruction in Gwinnett County. Additionally, she serves as the Education Chair with Decoding Dyslexia Georgia, DDGA, which advocates for change at the state level. Missy holds a degree in middle school education with 10+ years of experience in the classroom, grades 3rd-8th. She had stayed current in education practices by tutoring K-5 students in reading and writing using evidenced based instruction. Missy is married to Mark,
the mother of three boys, Harrison, William, and Matthew and one furbaby, named Comet. When she’s not working or advocating, she can be found with coffee in hand at the tennis courts or the baseball fields cheering on her boys!

“I know this discussion is likely to be unpopular among people who have embraced the SoR. The main response I’ve gotten to talks in which I’ve raised some of these issues is that the comments were rude, even mean-spirited, and not what the audience wanted to hear. That is itself symptomatic of a problem. My concerns are not about loyalty to a movement or affinity to an author or product. They are not about whose team a person is on. They are not about the people involved though they are about their work.” – Dr. Mark Seidenberg

We invited Dr. Tiffany Peltier to join us on The Literacy View to discuss Mark Seidenberg’s

article.
https://seidenbergreading.net/2023/03/31/about-the-science-in-the-science-of-reading/

Tiffany had concerns about the “science,” and nobody seemed to care. As a matter of fact, she was ostracized.
Tiffany Peltier brings over 12 years of experience in the education field, serving as an
elementary teacher in three different states, acting as an instructional coach to elementary teachers, and teaching undergraduate pre-service teachers within special education, learning, sciences, and literacy coursework at Texas A&M and the University of Oklahoma. She has also provided PL sessions for various schools and districts around early reading instruction and learning disabilities, been contracted with a state department of education to develop and provide Dyslexia Awareness training to educators across the state, and has provided PL opportunities to thousands of teachers, SLPs, school psychologists, and administration
throughout the US as a National LETRS Independent Contractor. She has most recently worked as a Research Scientist specializing in teacher training, early literacy, and reading difficulties like dyslexia at the Collaborative for Student Growth at NWEA and is now the Lead Learning and Delivery Specialist in Literacy at NWEA and a Teacher Educator at the University of Georgia in the Dyslexia Master’s Program.

Does the Science of Reading reject the importance of picture books for children learning to read? According to educator and author Nancy Bailey, “It’s hard to find Science of Reading
enthusiasts emphasizing the importance of picture books. Picture books no longer appear to be a priority in early classes.” Lindsay Kemeny, a first-grade SoR teacher and proponent of evidence-based practices, strongly disagrees with statements made in this blog. Lindsay joins The Literacy View to clear up misconceptions and promote picture books for building vocabulary, language, and content knowledge.
Nancy Bailey’s Article: “The Science of Reading and The Rejection of Picture Books”
Lindsay Kemeny’s bio: Lindsay Kemeny is a seasoned elementary-school teacher who is currently teaching first grade. After her son was diagnosed with dyslexia and depression, she began her deep dive into effective literacy instruction for all children. She is a CERI certified. Structured Literacy Classroom Teacher and holds a master’s degree in Curriculum and Instruction. In addition to being a classroom teacher, Lindsay has served as a teacher mentor and reading interventionist. She enjoys presenting locally and nationally, and co-hosting the Literacy Talks podcast. She is the author of the upcoming book, 7 Mighty Moves: Research-
Backed, Classroom-Tested Strategies to Ensure K-3 Reading Success. Her articles have appeared in The Reading League Journal, Dystinct Magazine, and IDA Perspectives. She lives in Utah with her husband and four children. You can follow her on Twitter @LindsayKemeny.

Naomi Peña has spent years fighting the NYC school system to help her dyslexic children. Finally, she’s working with the Department of Education to launch the Literacy Academy Collective, a pilot program founded by parents to better serve students with dyslexia. She has a lot to say about a recent article written by Alex Zimmerman and Yoav Gonen, journalists for THE CITY and Chalkbeat. As stated in the article, “Officials have begun to address what they see as some of the curriculum’s biggest shortcomings…Data obtained by THE CITY and Chalkbeat
reveal for the first time how deeply enmeshed the Teachers College reading curriculum has become in classrooms serving the city’s youngest students — and how difficult it could be to unwind.” Peña talks to The Literacy View about her experiences and what she and other powerful parents are doing about it. Naomi Peña is a community and education activist. She is the VP of the District 1 Community Education Council and a co-collaborator on the first ever district-wide diversity admissions policy in NYC.

Naomi Peña has spent years fighting the NYC school system to help her dyslexic children. Finally, she’s working with the Department of Education to launch the Literacy Academy Collective, a pilot program founded by parents to better serve students with dyslexia. She has a lot to say about a recent article written by Alex Zimmerman and Yoav Gonen, journalists for THE CITY and Chalkbeat. As stated in the article, “Officials have begun to address what they see as some of the curriculum’s biggest shortcomings…Data obtained by THE CITY and Chalkbeat
reveal for the first time how deeply enmeshed the Teachers College reading curriculum has become in classrooms serving the city’s youngest students — and how difficult it could be to unwind.” Peña talks to The Literacy View about her experiences and what she and other powerful parents are doing about it. Naomi Peña is a community and education activist. She is the VP of the District 1 Community Education Council and a co-collaborator on the first ever district-wide diversity admissions policy in NYC.

The Literacy View weighs in on the double header blogs, “Is Emily Hanford Right?” and “More on Hanford: Phonics Reform and Literacy Levels.” Joining us this week as our special guest is Marilyn Muller, a pro bono advocate for FAPE, Free Appropriate Public Education. 

Shanahan on Literacy blogs:

https://shanahanonliteracy.com/blog/is-emily-hanford-right#sthash.toXSVEy4.dpbs

https://shanahanonliteracy.com/blog/more-on-hanford-phonics-reform-and-literacy-levels#sthash.TNWflUap.dpbs

Our Guests Bio: 
Marilyn Muller is a pro bono advocate for “free” appropriate public-funded education (FAPE) to ensure each child gets what they most need to thrive, be proficiently literate, and prepared for further education, employment, and independent living.
As the mom of Lauryn, a 15-year-old twice-exceptional dyslexic, Marilyn lived closest to systemic failures in both general and special education classrooms. As Lauryn struggled to acquire the foundational skills of early literacy, her "A" rated, publicly funded Massachusetts school district abandoned her educational and functional needs by solely implementing the K-3 Balanced Literacy curriculum and instruction. As a result, Marilyn had no other choice but to fund Lauryn's placement in a private school that employs Structured Literacy. Once Lauryn began receiving appropriate instruction, she thrived academically and later became student council President. These lived experiences have caused Marilyn to believe that literacy is an "equitable education." and social justice issue, so she's committed to raising and spreading awareness and facilitating positive change through her advocacy and charity.

Natalie Wexler's article, New Podcast Examines Why Teachers Have Been 'Sold a Story' on Reading Instruction caused quite a stir.

Why? 
Wexler believes phonics is only part of the story. 

She writes, "But here's the problem: If we don't simultaneously focus our failures with regard to comprehension and writing instruction- the latter of which is crucial in familiarizing students with the complex syntax of written language, among other things- we may JEOPARDIZE THE PROGRESS NOW BEING MADE IN TEACHING PHONICS."

In this episode, Natalie Wexler explains her article for teachers, parents, and educational leaders.

Kristin Simmer's article, "Education Research Is Still Too Dense. We Need More Teacher-Researcher Partnerships" illuminates the GREAT DIVIDE between school educators and researchers.

Why is this the case?
How can the bridge be started?

The nation's students depend on the best actionable research.

Top-level leaders must learn how to discern research.
Teachers must have a VOICE and a SEAT at the TABLE guiding people who are far removed from students and schools.

IS RESPONSE TO INTERVENTION (RTii) or the MULTI SYSTEM OF SUPPORT....
FAKE NEWS?

How do schools deal with students who are not making progress?

What happens in Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier  3 interventions?

Why should parents and teachers know about this approach to teaching?

In 2004, Congress passed the Individuals with
Disabilities Education Improvement Act (IDEA). This is special education law. When students struggle with learning, they are “at risk.” With additional help or intervention, many can catch up.

In schools using RTI, teachers provide intervention as soon as students show signs of having difficulties. They do not wait for students to fail.
Intervention is a special instruction to help students close gaps in learning.

Faith Borkowsky, Judy Boksner, and Mary McCool Berry share their strong opinions in a boiling hot episode!
