Hey Reader, I know summer is a time for rest and recharging, but it's also a great time to discover new ideas and strategies when you aren't rushing to make copies or plan your next set of reading lessons. One of the hardest things as a teacher is getting professional development from people who haven't taught in a classroom in a decade. Just like me, so many of the Science of Reading Summit presenters work directly with kids each and every day. They know know what works... and what only works on paper, not the real world! This event is totally free, but I highly suggest the scooping up the great deal for the All Access Pass for PD credit certificates! You get so many presentations for one super cheap price if you need the completion credits. That's why I really hope you'll join me for this year's SOR Summit! Every session is free to attend with 48-hour access each day. After you register you'll have the option to grab the All-Access Pass for six months of replay access, handouts, and PD certificates for every session.
I hope to see you there! My presentation is on Tuesday, so be sure to check it out! |

I've been dealing with a severe asthma flare for the last couple of months and many trips to hospitals, so I take my bursts of energy when I can, so here we are on a Sunday morning finding the happiness in a good day. One thing that gives me a burst of energy is when I see my students shine. Two weeks ago I got an email from a dad of my former student that made me happy cry with pride. I...
Happy Friday! I have been blown away by the amazing feedback from the people who attended the SOR Summit! Here are just a few quotes about my Dysgraphia in the Classroom presentation: "Loved this presentation so informative" "I just learned so much about dysgraphia that I hadn't know before. Lisa, thank you so much for information as well as the dyslexia challenge!" "I have heard so much about dyslexia, but not much about dysgraphia.
