“The OT in my building has been my BFF when it comes to reading/spelling, so this just makes sense!”
The NEW Handwriting Hub series will unpack:
• A language-based handwriting perspective to support letter formation skills.
• Integrating handwriting and word study instruction.
• Ideas for individual instruction or small-group adaptations.
Handwriting Hub connects literacy professionals to share ideas, problem-solve, and explore practical ways to enhance outcomes through structured and language-based handwriting instruction within speech-to-print word study.
Just one of the MANY learning opportunities inside our online community. https://learningbydesign.com/professional-development/spell-linkd/

“Great discussion! Lots of ideas for working on syllabification of words the way they are spoken.”
In a recent School Matters session, we tackled:
• Supporting a 2nd grader who adds sounds when writing
• Breaking apart spoken syllables with a 5th-grade student
• Practical word study activities for 4th grade
School Matters is a collaborative forum where classroom teachers and interventionists bring real challenges—and leave with usable solutions—to strengthen reading and writing instruction.

Every classroom and virtual session comes with its own set of challenges.
Let’s solve them together! Last month, we discussed using prescriptive assessment data to set individualized learning goals, delivering print-to-speech structured literacy in a small group setting, and mastering meta-cognitive strategies that help your students with metacognitive skills that support their independent reading and writing.
