Is it working though? I feel like most people are seeing it for the sham it is- or maybe I'm in an echo chamber….

Ep. 211: Building Fluency with POSSUM with Melissa Orkin and Maryanne Wolf

open.spotify.com/episode/3CPy...

So enjoyed this episode and listening to Melissa and Maryanne discuss POSSUM! “Oh, Look at the letters, what letters can be….they can turn words that we say— into words that we see” love that way of summing up alphabetic principle from Maryanne Wolf! #SOR #EDUSky

Sounds perfect to me! No lesson goes 100% to plan and I think that models something real that a teacher feels they can replicate! And gives them permission to try and make some mistakes along the way! ❤️

Structured Literacy infographic divided into ‘What to Teach’ and ‘How to Teach.’ The ‘What to Teach’ section includes phonology, orthography, morphology, syntax, and semantics, with the phrase ‘Integrated, Woven & Simultaneous’ connecting them, emphasizing a data-driven approach. The ‘How to Teach’ section highlights explicit, systematic, cumulative, interactive instruction, and feedback, with the phrase ‘Targeted, Planned & Purposeful’ illustrating effective practices.

I haven't found her on here (is she here?!) but I love Tiffany Peltier’s phonemic awareness tower! So user friendly and the integrating phonics box has helped me explain how adding graphemes gives us more bang for our buck!!!

What instruction do students need before they can write a paragraph or a story? A LOT!!
