Ep. 103: From Workshop Model to Reading Science in Pentucket

Episode Description Pentucket Regional School District  transitioned from balanced  literacy programs to teaching and learning with structured literacy and reading science. Coaches and leaders used data to support educators in understanding the purpose of the transition. They unpacked why the materials were different from what they previously used. Key takeaway: You can’t take your old practices with you and use them with the new materials. Pentucket currently utilizes Wit & Wisdom ELA, Geodes, Fundations, and Heggerty. Related EpisodesEp. 94: “If only I would have known…” Book Talk with Author Faith Borkowsky  Ep. 10: Noticing the #KnowledgeGap with Natalie Wexler Ep. 16: Scaling Literacy Success with Brian KingsleyEp. 69: Wondering about Wit & Wisdom ELA? Resources Grassroots Enthusiasm Powers Adoption of Evidence-Based ELA and Math CurriculaData Discussions Drive Progress: Pentucket's Curriculum Journey The Shift from Fountas & Pinnell to Research-Aligned Reading InstructionText at the Center (MEredith and Sue) Understanding Wit & Wisdom Great Minds Blog, including Preparation Protocol link Teaching with Complex Text: It’s a Complex Thing To Do Pentucket Teaching and Learning Blog Follow us!Facebook and join our Facebook Group Twitter Instagram For more resources, visit our website and subscribe to our newsletter. Helping teachers learn about science of reading, knowledge building, and high quality curriculum. Looking for more literacy support and resources?
