E36 | Knowledge and Literacy Instruction with Dr. Courtney Hattan and Dr. Sarah Lupo

Welcome to a new school year! This is a fantastic interview to kick things off. In this episode I am talking with Dr. Courtney Hattan and Dr. Sarah Lupo about knowledge, what it means for reading comprehension, and how to think about leveraging knowledge in the classroom. I am also excited to announce that there is a new co-producer with me on TLP. His name is Patrick Wells and he is a first year first grade teacher. He will be helping with the editing and production of the show. If you find value in the show we would appreciate a donation to keep things running. You can find TLP on the business side of Venmo @teachlitpodcast or there is a secure link on teachingliteracypodcast.com where you can donate securely.
