I enjoyed hearing Angie's presentation on the connections between spoken and written language and how we need to think about teaching literacy to our students. It was shocking to hear how a lot of professionals don't understand the why behind how we teach our students these foundational skills.

I have been an SLP for 20+ years and I used to incorporate more phonemic awareness and phonological awareness in my sessions but I have drifted away from that. This course has reignited that understanding that these are my responsibility and I need to be incorporating them in my lesson again.

I think this information is very accurate in my working area and feel that this was emphasized years ago. Only recently, I feel like we have moved away from what was working and have implemented programs that do not accurately target all areas of reading instruction.

The course aligns with the Science of Reading—-integrating research and promoting explicit, systematic instruction in phonological awareness, phonics, vocabulary, fluency, and comprehension. This course encourages team-based approaches involving educators, speech-language pathologists (SLPs), specialists, and families. Recognizes that literacy development is multi-disciplinary, particularly for students with language-based learning difficulties.
by

It was interesting to hear how some of the approaches that have been used for classroom and intervention approaches to reading do not include systematic,explicit, structured literacy instruction (that focuses on phonological awareness, word recognition, phonics, decoding, spelling and syntax). I look forward to hearing more in part 2 of this series.

There was a wealth of information provided in this course and Angie provided action steps that can be taken immediately (e.g., asking if the gap is closing instead of if progress is being made, encouraging teachers to flip the order of the three-cue system, etc.). I always find Angie's courses to be incredibly engaging and relevant.

This course should be required of all MTSS teams, reading specialists, and administrators. As an SLP I know the research and correlation between language skills and reading success, but other professionals in a school setting totally ignore it. This presentation is very well presented and provides the specific research so many people need to hear.

The data provided by the instructor and its application to the "Why?" In other words, she provided the research to support what works and what doesn't with respect to teaching reading. I had never heard of the 3 Cues! There is no guessing when you use structured literacy.
