Visited a 1st-grade class @Yough_SD and saw the science of reading in action! @PetkeJanelle uses articulatory gestures for phonemes, giving students a multisensory, evidence-based approach to literacy. Huge thanks to Dr. Skorvan for the invite—so inspiring! #LiteracyMatters

Thanks @WIU07 for taking some pictures of this highly anticipated conversation. I cannot wait to see principals replicating the success experienced at Yough Intermediate School. Stay tuned, more to follow! Twenty middle school leaders attended this workshop. 😎

[WIU07 @WIU07]

In today's "Reading Fluency and its Connection to Reading Comprehension" workshop, facilitated by @JasonStragand, middle school principals gained practical tools to implement school-wide initiatives that support long-term educational success.

Started year 2 of @LexiaLearning #LETRS @WIU07 with @hasd_district reading specialists. They are a DYNAMIC group of teachers who support reading remediation that connects to the science of reading. They keep me on my toes by asking great questions. 👀

[Jason Stragand, Ed.D. @JasonStragand]

Hands down, background knowledge was affirmed, new learning happened, and misconceptions were demystified. I’m available to do the same kind of professional learning at your school or district through @WIU07 DM or email me.

[Jason Stragand, Ed.D. @JasonStragand]
