Better Teaching: Only Stuff That Works

• Literacy Labs and Other Practical Strategies with Faith Howard

  Faith Howard knew something had to change. As a Literacy Specialist, in her school district she wasn’t making the impact she knew was possible. With the support of her administration, Faith reimagined her role and launched a “Literacy Lab” — a space designed to emphasize the SOR principles in targeted literacy intervention and instruction. In this episode, Faith shares how the Literacy Lab came to life and offers practical strategies teachers can use to strengthen Tier 1 instruction in their own classrooms. Facebook: Literacy Lab with FaithSubstack: Faith Howard | SubstackYouTube Channel: Science of Reading ClassroomEmail: [email protected] This podcast sponsored by:The Bell Ringer, a weekly newsletter providing news, tools, and resources on the science of learning, written by education reporter Holly Korbey.
