@FCPSElemLA kicked off 4 more of our school funded @LexiaLearning LETRS cohorts tonight with T learners who cannot wait to bring culturally responsive evidence based literacy knowledge to their schools and students! We are SO excited to see how you and your S grow in literacy ❤️

Hey @fcpsnews teachers and schools. @BenchmarkEdu materials are headed your way!

Excellent insight by ⁦@ReadingShanahan⁩ on why grade level curriculum should be taught to S, even if they haven’t leaned previous skills. “Few skills need to be taught before other skills can be learned. The sequence of phonics is largely arbitrary.” shanahanonliteracy.com/blog/small-gro…

@PamelaSnow2 - your session at @cll_teach Plain Talk gave me so much to think about. But this reminded me that when we work collectively, we can literally change the trajectory for children. It was an honor to hear you speak.

Thank you @LindsayKemeny for showing us how research into practice can be so effective. So many takeaways from this session.

We are a community. “I’m tired of getting the crumbs. I want a seat at the table.” Diversity is not an afterthought. @#PlainTalkNOLA

I will always be a teacher first. To me, leadership means staying connected to the practice. Thank you to my little group of readers who let me practice with them each week.

@Greenrunninggrl @LindsayKemeny Wish you were going to be there but so excited!!

@JeanWyche @LindsayKemeny You’re going to love it Jean! One of my top conferences for sure ❤️ Wish I was going!

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼see you there @LindsayKemeny can’t wait!

Finish this sentence. I’ll go first: You know you’re a reading teacher when… you’re getting your kids ready for school and notice all the princesses on your 4- year old’s shirt end with a schwa … and then you tell them: Raya Cinderella Tiana Aurora Moana

Which SOR books are you looking forward to reading in the new year? Here are some of the ones I’m looking forward to!

“But in the work we’ve done, we’ve shown that if you systematically and explicitly stimulate language, you can see increases over time that promote reading comprehension.” edweek.org/teaching-learn…

So honored to have learned about Structured Word Inquiry with Peter Bowers. I will never look at word families the same, nor will I teach them the same! Thank you @LexiaLearning for keeping facilitators abreast with the highest quality PD to support all students and teachers.

I spy @LexiaLearning #LETRS in @fcpsnews 💫💫

Hey @fcpsnews! Wondering where to go next with your SOR journey? Check this out 👇🏼

#LETRSinFCPS today with the most fabulous group of dedicated educators. H O N O R E D to have the opportunity to facilitate this learning for @fcpsnews staff and students. Cannot wait to watch their students and practice G R O W this year.

@TeachTrainLove @fcpsnews @LexiaLearning Hehehe

One of my favorite things about managing #LETRSinFCPS is showering my dedicated @fcpsnews facilitators with little notes like this. This was so much fun to make! IYKYK

What is a mental model and what does it have to do with language comprehension? Our @fcpsnews reading teachers spent part of their learning earlier this week digging into just that, as well as building understanding around @LexiaLearning implementation and reading plans!

Why are some ways ts effectively teach text structures and inferencing so S create a strong mental model? @fcpsschool region 3 and 4 lit leaders discuss with #ReadingComprehensionBlueprint
