It’s an exciting week for our district… DECODABLES have arrived for all our K-2 classrooms. I can’t wait to see our students using them! 📖

[Jennifer LaVance @MsCLiteracy]

Every morning I would greet each one of my students with our classroom handshake. The handshake was developed by adding a move each month of school. My students looked forward to it every day!

Whiting’s Literacy Glow Night event was full of learning and fun! Through the magic of gamification, families delved into the wonders of literacy in an engaging, GLOWING way! Thank you to all who participated in this amazing event.

The Dolphin Dining crew worked hard to keep everyone fueled and smiling throughout today’s event. It was a fun-filled day at Ridgeway’s Dolphin Fest! 💙

Our youngest students can struggle to connect speech sounds to print on the page. This skill can be challenging, but research shows decodable texts can be highly beneficial at this stage of literacy learning. Check out this blog!

I can’t wait to share different ways to support fluency with our teachers in upcoming Lunch and Learn sessions! #alwayslearning

[Institute for Multi-Sensory Education @IMSEOG]

Fluency can be practiced in several ways, including repeated readings, reader theaters, and decodable readers.

One of our Grade 3 teachers transformed her classroom into an operating room for Text Feature Surgery. The students “diagnosed” each patient with the right text feature for their symptoms. Thanks for the invite to participate! #makelearningfun

I had the opportunity to read to students today in honor of #ReadAcrossAmerica! I love reading aloud to students because it allows me to share my passion for literature while igniting their imaginations through storytelling.
