IMSE is committed to providing teachers with the knowledge and tools to promote individual reading excellence.

@IMSEOG The silent e pattern trips kids up because they memorize rules instead of seeing it repeat across dozens of words. These cards force that repetition without worksheet fatigue. That's where learning actually locks in.

If fluency is the missing piece, start here.

Fluency is the ability to read accurately, with speed and prosody. It is the bridge between decoding and comprehension.

This reel shows a student working through the IMSE OG+ Decodable Fluency Printable Bundle: Rapid Word Charts for automatic word recognition, then the Sentence Pyramids for repeated sentence-level practice. Both activities are aligned to the OG+ K-2 Scope and Sequence and designed for real classroom use.

Whether you teach in a general ed classroom, run intervention, or support students in a homeschool setting, this bundle meets you where you are.

Thank you to IMSE Reader Leader Mona (@teachingheart11) for sharing this incredible student moment with us!

Two weeks ago we launched Spelling Mode in the Project Read Tutor, and the response from classrooms has been incredible.

Spelling Mode is the first digital tool to analyze student spelling via touchscreen down to the letter-sound correspondence, built in collaboration with the @UFLiteracy team and aligned to the UFLI scope and sequence.

Encoding has a symbiotic relationship with decoding, and is where so many students struggle.

We think this is a fundamentally shift in how digital tools can support emerging readers and spellers.

Most AI tools tap out around 80 to 87% decodable, even with really intentional prompting.

@ProjectReadAI found a way into the high 90s by embedding letter-sound knowledge and word mapping directly into the model, not just layering prompts on top.

This clip is from our free webinar "AI Under the Hood: Opportunities and Limitations for Foundational Skills Instruction" with @vivramak . Watch the full replay free: https://t.co/MAapjWMsqD

We are also giving away access to Project Read AI over on Instagram to a lucky teacher. Head to @imse_og to enter.

The preschool years are not a waiting room for reading. They are where reading begins.

Pre-K Literacy+ is a two-day course for preschool educators focused on oral language, emergent literacy, and early writing — the building blocks of reading success. Evidence-based strategies, practical routines, and materials you can use across the entire preschool day.

Live virtual training is now available. Asynchronous option also available.

A reading interventionist took IMSE training 9 years ago to help her own kids. Then she brought Orton-Gillingham to her entire school.

Now Mount Mahogany Community School has more successful readers and writers, a collaborative teaching staff, and students who struggled elsewhere finally finding success.

That's what evidence-based literacy instruction looks like in practice.

"Lean into curiosity. We're all learners."
IMSE Coaching Success Lead Allison Caldwell said it during the 2026 Leadership Literacy Summit, and it's one of those lines that stays with you.
Culture drives implementation. When leaders model vulnerability and create space for collective learning, collective teacher efficacy follows.
The full summit recording is on demand now. Six hours. Expert sessions. Built for literacy leaders.

AI is showing up in K-12 classrooms faster than most educators have had a chance to understand it.

Tomorrow, @vivramak , founder of @ProjectReadAI Read AI, is hosting a free webinar designed to change that. "AI Under the Hood" walks through how large language models actually work and then connects that understanding directly to literacy instruction using Scarborough's Reading Rope as the framework.

Strand by strand, you will see where AI shows real promise and where it currently falls short for foundational skills. Examples are grounded in the IMSE scope and sequence, so the session connects directly to the Structured Literacy practices you already use.

If you work in literacy education and want a clearer, more grounded view of what AI can and cannot do in your classroom, this one is worth your hour.
