You know teachers are really, really serious about reading when they dress up on Halloween 🎃 as The Literacy League, showing off their favorite reading rules. Thanks @MtnViewES and @jessicasutton22 for your enthusiasm!

REAP isn't just for teaching new readers...we ❤️ working with teachers of older kids, too. These 4th-grade teachers at @EastSide_CCSD are excited about REAP's Word Analysis Workshop.

It's that time of year...training new cohorts of teachers! They're ready to learn how to teach reading in a way that works for ALL kids.

@jessicasutton22 @MtnViewES REAP is super excited to be back in the schools training the newest cohorts in Structured Literacy!

@MtnViewES 3rd grade teachers spent the day learning with @ReadforAllPeopl! I’m so excited for the team to transfer their knowledge to our students. Thank you to our Foundation for funding this opportunity. ❤️📚 #thebestview
