If fluency is the missing piece, start here.

Fluency is one of the five pillars of literacy, and it is often the one that shows you decoding is finally clicking.

This reel shows a student working through the IMSE OG+ Decodable Fluency Printable Bundle at two levels: word recognition with the Rapid Word Charts, and sentence-level fluency with the Sentence Pyramids. The activities are structured, repeatable, and aligned to the IMSE OG+ K-2 Scope and Sequence.

This resource is built for teachers across general education, special education, intervention, EL support, Title 1, and homeschool settings. Explain and assign during small group time, then use it for centers, independent practice, or homework.

Thank you to IMSE Reader Leader Mona () for sharing this incredible student moment with us!

The preschool years are not a waiting room for reading. They are where reading begins.

Pre-K Literacy+ is a two-day course built for preschool educators. You will learn evidence-based strategies and practical routines for building oral language, emergent literacy, and early writing skills across the preschool day — skills that set children up for reading success long before kindergarten.

Live virtual training is now available. If you prefer a self-paced option, the asynchronous course is available any time.

When Alexandra first took IMSE's Orton-Gillingham training, it was personal. She had been out of the classroom for about 10 years, had kids of her own who were struggling, and wanted to help them.

Then she realized the need was much bigger than her own household.

She brought IMSE to Mount Mahogany Community School, where she now works as a reading interventionist. The difference? More successful readers and writers, a collaborative staff, and students who had struggled elsewhere finally building real literacy skills.

Stories like Alexandra's are exactly why we do this work.

"Lean into curiosity. We're all learners."

Allison Caldwell, IMSE Coaching Success Lead, shared this during the Leadership Moves panel at the 2026 IMSE Leadership Literacy Summit, and it's the kind of reminder every literacy leader needs.

When leaders model vulnerability and make space for collective learning, they build the culture that makes Structured Literacy implementation actually stick.

The full summit recording is now available on demand. Six hours of practical, research-backed sessions designed for educators and leaders driving literacy change across their schools and districts.
