@drheidibc Can you share the “squares “?

[Rachel Samuels, NBCT @RASam329]

Thanks for coming, Faith!

[Faith Sampat @FaithJohnson5]

Morphology is an area I still have a lot to learn about. I’m thankful for the information I learned today at Linguistics 101! @RASam329 the presentation was awesome! And I can’t wait to look at the shared resources!!

[Ellen Frackelton, NBCT @EFrackelton]

“While reading instruction is enriched by providing book choice, read alouds, and ample time for independent reading—hallmarks of the whole language approach and what's now called ‘balanced literacy’—those elements alone will not teach early elementary students to decode words.“

[Education Week @educationweek]

Teacher @kyleredford has long advocated that dyslexic children need specialized instruction in how to decode words. But a recent look at reading research called her to question her stance—and now she says all students should learn this way. https://t.co/G8xCvtER5E #ewopinion

@twwilliamsABC Yes! I think it’s like giving our readers & writers a map of the terrain of NF.

[Rachel Samuels, NBCT @RASam329]

@kaaauthor @MacKidsBooks Filled out! Great meeting you.

[Rachel Samuels, NBCT @RASam329]

Meeting @kaaauthor was a highlight of #VSRA19. Her picture book Sometimes You Fly hits home - “before the know”. Thank you, Katherine. #literacy
