How lucky are we to have so many literacy teachers between the pages of a book?! 📖
Books can help us talk, read, listen, respond, and engage! They create a shared space where literacy and communication come together through meaning, interaction, and expression 📚

✏️ Not every student can use a traditional pencil, but every student can write!
Students don't need to know all the letters of the alphabet to begin writing, they just need access to them. Alternative pencils are any tool that provides an individual with access to all 26 letters of the alphabet. This removes the barrier of traditional handwriting to access letters.
✅ Writing doesn't have to be right!
In errorless free-writing, any text a student produces is given a response, thoughtful expansion, and a meaningful connection to ideas, not correction.
📆 Writing development is opportunity-dependent!
Pair daily opportunities to free-write with errorless writing, and students can focus on generating ideas instead of avoiding mistakes.
😄 Check out the video below to see how simple it is!

Prepping for shared reading can be as easy as highlighting a word (or more)!
Highlight a repeated phrase and pair it with modeling AAC
System pathways like “my favorite” naturally create opportunities to:
• model multi-word combinations
• support motor planning
• connect language to literacy
Simple prep, meaningful opportunities !
