We had such a great conversation with our guests Dr. Melissa Orkin, an expert in literacy development and dyslexia research, and Sarah Gannon, a seasoned educator and curriculum designer, that we’re breaking up our conversation into two episodes! For this episode, 5.6, we discuss their new book, The Structured Literacy Playbook: Preplanned Lessons for Building Phonics and Fluency Skills. The book features case studies and lesson scripts that help teachers effectively implement strategies such as decodable texts, backward design, and multi-component approaches to strengthen students’ reading fluency. Please enjoy our discussion, and join us for the second half in episode 5.7!
