As a teacher, I really wanted to love this, but I found this podcast really difficult to listen to and keep track. The podcast does not seem to have a structure or flow and there doesn’t seem to be anything I could take away from to implement in my own classroom (I was listening to the...Read full review »

I am so thankful I found this podcast. It’s extremely helpful and gives me the information I need with regards to supporting literacy development. I listened to it religiously and I swear it helped me pass the RICA. You will learn so much from this podcast. Thanks Shannon and Mary!

The Hosts Shannon and Mary are down-to-earth, knowledgeable, and interesting people. They share an insatiable hunger for knowledge and are constantly expanding their own professional repertoires. Five seasons in, they are comfortable behind the microphone and with each other. Their interviews...Read full review »

This podcast presents great information. Both hosts seem knowledgable but Mary speaks over Shannon and goes on too long with tangents and personal stories. If you have an amazing guest like Wiley Blevins for example, let the guest speak! We will learn more from Wiley Blevins than from Mary...Read full review »

I am so glad I found this podcast. I just found it recently and I started from the beginning which has been very informative. I appreciate how honest these teachers are about their own learning journey. I have learned a lot and I look forward to learning more.

I have been searching for an Early Literacy podcast and have cycled through quite a few. Everything they say rings true and confirms my own observations from being a K teacher for 16 years. I love how they don’t just discuss theory, like many education podcasts, but give practical knowledge. I...Read full review »

Love their passion, but there are sprinklings of outdated information (learning styles, balanced literacy) in several of their podcasts that I have listened to. Not a bad podcast overall!

I just started listening to this podcast, so I have not gotten through all of the episodes.

I was excited to start listening to this podcast (I have been a teacher for 12 years in third and kindergarten). I was disappointed in their description of balanced literacy, especially the phonics component. Explicit phonics instruction is a part of balanced literacy. Also, the Teachers College...Read full review »

I am a reading specialist. I like to listen to podcasts and videos about reading and the research that is out there. The intro says that once they started talking reading, they haven’t stopped. If we were neighbors, I’d join you! Thanks for your episodes, sharing, and spreading the word about the...Read full review »
