Description

Decodable text can be a critical component of what you do as a reading teacher. In this episode of Literacy Talks, hear three experts explore the learning connection between phonics instruction and decodable text and how this can work to motivate striving readers of all ages. Our hosts discuss the topic of decodable text from three different perspectives: K–3 classroom teacher, middle/high/adult level tutor, and professor of preservice teachers. A bonus? Discover how parents and caregivers can get involved at home with decodable passages to help students practice and build reading fluency.

Rethinking Adolescent Literacy Intervention

For many adolescent readers, comprehension challenges may be a symptom of something deeper. National research shows that many older students are still missing foundational reading skills. We're sponsoring a series of in-person events spanning multiple cities and states across the country, bringing together district, community, and literacy leaders to address the needs of adolescent readers.
