[Melissa & Lori Love Literacy Podcast @literacypodcast]

In this rereleased episode, Stephanie Stollar talks about strengthening Tier 1 instruction, identifying barriers to better reading outcomes, using data to make changes, and building an MTSS that responds to what students and educators actually need.

[Melissa & Lori Love Literacy Podcast @literacypodcast]

A strong MTSS should be built around the needs revealed by the data, not around a checklist of procedures copied from somewhere else.

Hear more from Stephanie Stollar in our rereleased episode, “Systems to Get Better Reading Results.”

💚 Dyslexia can be confusing.

Our friends at Langsford have created a new on-demand course, Understanding Dyslexia, to help better understand dyslexia, recognize warning signs, and learn what effective assessment and instruction should look like.

Listening to students read is simply one of the most important things you can do as a reading teacher.

In our new episode, Stephanie Stollar explains what teachers can learn by listening closely and why reading accuracy is essential for comprehension.

[Melissa & Lori Love Literacy Podcast @literacypodcast]

Imagine 2 students who read 85 words correctly in 1 minute.

1 reads slowly but accurately. The other reads quickly while making many errors. A score tells part of the story.

Hear Kate Winn explain this example in “Reading Assessment Done Right.”

Are your reading assessments helping you decide what to teach next?

In our new episode, Stephanie Stollar and Kate Winn, authors of Reading Assessment Done Right, help us make sense of screening, diagnostic assessment, and progress monitoring.

[Melissa & Lori Love Literacy Podcast @literacypodcast]

Kate Winn and Stephanie Stollar recommend starting with one quality, evidence-based assessment for each purpose: screening, diagnostic assessment, progress monitoring, and outcomes.

They help us sort out what each one should tell us in our new episode, dropping Friday!

[Melissa & Lori Love Literacy Podcast @literacypodcast]

When large numbers of students score below benchmark, the solution can't be to create an individual plan for each child.

Stephanie Stollar and Kate Winn help us think differently about how schools collect and use reading assessment data in our new episode, dropping Friday!

[Melissa & Lori Love Literacy Podcast @literacypodcast]

Stephanie Stollar & Kate Winn organize reading assessment around:

Who's at risk?
What should I teach next?
Is instruction working?
Did students reach the goal?

This Friday's episode will walk through those questions +more.

Ameer Baraka says an estimated 1 in 5 people live with dyslexia every day of their lives. He's one of them, and it took 42 years for anyone to tell him why he struggled the way he did.

[Melissa & Lori Love Literacy Podcast @literacypodcast]

The relief of finally having an answer to the “why.” This passage from Ameer Baraka’s Undiagnosed: The Ugly Side of Dyslexia says so much.

A powerful story and an episode worth hearing. Listen wherever you get your podcasts. 💛
