Inside the C and C Reading Factory: Literacy at Mount Daniel

Mount Daniel reading specialists Carly Swanson and Casie DeSantis break down what structured literacy looks like in the classroom and how families can support reading skills at home. They walk through the Amplify CKLA curriculum, demonstrate hands-on activities from Danny folders — including phoneme practice, word-building, fluency passages, and tricky words — and share practical tips for read-alouds and comprehension. Resources, including online decodable books and a phoneme video, are linked at Danny's Corner on the Mount Daniel website.
