"I do it in honor of everyone who teaches someone else how to read."

I knew from a very young age that the written word was something I needed, but yet I struggled to learn to read.
It was my mother who led me through the struggle, who held up words on flashcards for me to memorize, who believed in me.
Words—the power and privilege of reading and writing—are at the center The Beatryce Prophecy.
Today, The Beatryce Prophecy goes out into the world, and I will be going around the neighborhood putting copies of the book into Little Free Libraries.
I do it in honor of words and stories.
I do it in honor of my mother.
I do it in honor of everyone who teaches someone else how to read.

Sign up now for PFLC’s one day workshop: Grammar Case!
The workshop will take place on October 26th. This workshop was designed to help teachers learn methods for teaching students at all grade levels to improve their writing skills. More details are on our website funlearn.org!

Did you know that dyslexia is not something a child will "grow out of"? Dyslexia is actually a society issue that affects 1 in 5 individuals. Although individuals with dyslexia may struggle with reading, writing, and spelling they are able to find strengths in other areas. Dyslexia is not an indicator of low intelligence. In fact, tests show that people with dyslexia often have an above average intelligence!

We’re having a party!

Here is something you can apply in your home or classroom today! 🧠

Typically, when students misread a word, we have a tendency to tell them to go back and reread. Try this instead:

⭐️ Have the student NAME the letters in a word. If the word is pat, have them name the letter p, letter a, and letter t. Why? This allows students’ attention to be focused on each letter. It also strengthens the orthographic identity of the word in the student’s brain.

On another note, tomorrow is my last day of my first CALT training course. I have learned more in this 2-week course than in my entire undergraduate or graduate degree! I am so grateful I am able to be apart of this 2 year training program. I can’t wait to learn even more! 😍😍
