“After graduating from a prestigious university, I stepped into a 3rd grade classroom to begin my career as a teacher. I was taught the whole language approach to reading, wholeheartedly bought into it, brought it into the classroom, and learned very quickly that it worked on about 5% of my students. I did not know what to do, but I did the best I knew how to do which was tell myself, “They will get it. They just need more time.” Twelve years later I learned about LETRS training and a lightbulb blew out of my head! Maya Angelou said it best…”Do the best you can until you know better.

Looking forward to the rest of this series! 📖💙”

“Emily Hanford’s work on elementary education and literacy in the US changed the game, and now, in the best of ways, she has done it again. “The Idea” is so clear, and so well scaffolded by “The Problem”, that you’ll wonder how something so simple has had so much power, and caused so much harm....”Read full review »
