Have fun and start reading with Roly! Free. Recommended by experts. Program teaches phonemic awareness & the alphabetic principle. Free decodable books.
Here's something free and fun for kids to do from home! Visit https://t.co/onu6aQ4r90 to learn about a non-screen learning activity for children age 3+ designed specifically to develop phonological awareness skill, age-appropriately, with play at school and at home.
@LoriBaker7 If that's not a demonstration of children with no phonemic awareness, what is! They know the meaning of language but all things to do with fragmenting it into sound parts do not compute. So of course they would fragment based on the meaning (cat) and fragment down to sounds🐈
@reading_league Screeners and other measures can be amazing tools! Teachers in our kindergarten pilots used an assessment with 6 sets of phonemes to make sure students learned to blend. Kids scoring red/yellow got more playtime with Roly until their score turned to green. Playful intervention!
@Kathy_Rice@bctf@Dave_Eby ❤️ the new K Foundational Literacy Progressions and screening to support ALL students with a successful start to reading! 💫.
We are very optimistic about the future seeing some amazing @bctf kindergarten teachers teach these skills with Play Roly at the very start of school.

@Kathy_Rice@Beanie0597 Keep going Kathy! It is working. We are heartened to hear of the progress being made in your district. Some schools starting universal screening and focusing on evidence based foundational skills even before the province directives came out. That’s big change, especially for K!
Hats off @wabkinew and Tracy Schmidt! 🎉Next step: supply your K teachers with low-cost Play Roly Teacher Guidebooks!
✅ Classroom-ready, joyful program

Good news in Manitoba as govt passes Bill 225 for reading screening. "Bill 225 requires elementary schools to systematically screen elementary students for early signs of struggle, immediately act on warning signs and document findings in report cards." https://t.co/bRuBPjAYjB
@sharongregson@MarkJCarney@Dave_Eby Agreed! Making Canada strong for generations to come. Government sponsorship of Play Roly’s innovative, joyful and free start to reading would further support this initiative. Supporting ECEs with high quality, inclusive early learning so all children reach their full potential.
@rastokke@ChadAldeman Our free phonemic awareness and early reading program can be used by any parent whose child is not grasping early reading skills in K. After learning to blend with “Roly” (any ball with a smiley face they get to play with), kids practice their skills with free decodable books!
@Kathy_Rice@karenvaites@MissyPurcell@brett_tingley@JamieMetsala@ReadSimplified@ehanford Today’s momentum toward so many 🇨🇦 educators looking to bring evidence based practices to their classrooms is a result of so many of us coming together 🌎. Thank you to all for the passion and energy you bring to this dialogue - it is translating into action for children. 📚🙏🏻📚
For Dyslexia Awareness Month we share the Play Roly dyslexia story behind why we now support K teachers with a joyful, age-appropriate program to help students take their very first steps in reading and writing 💕. You also hear from @LindaSiegel1!

We’re here to support kindergarten teachers! Our Teacher Dashboard is free to use - just sign up as a teacher and be guided through the lessons. If your district will support the purchase of materials (Teacher Guidebook and Student Workbooks) they really support implementation.
@literacypodcast Thanks for highlighting this important topic! Play Roly is a fun, fast free way teachers can go straight to the “Holy Trinity” as Matt Burns says: teach their kindergarten students to isolate, blend and segment phonemes in CVC words.
