Tune in and let language—and real, research-driven evidence—lead the way! ❤️❤️❤️Link to bios-Trina Spencer: https://absc.ku.edu/Trina-Spencer#:~:text=Spencer%20is%20a%20senior%20scientist,and%20Departmentj%20of%20Special%20Education.Bio Doug Petersen: https://www.childlanguagespecialist.org/welcome-douglas-bryan-petersen/You Tube Channel:https://youtube.com/@languagedynamics?si=h5sakwCjx1r_UYoFSend us Fan MailDecodify is a supplemental, structured literacy toolkit that allows for reading practice in an engaging, purposeful, and educational format.
