Hello and welcome back! On today’s episode, we are talking all about the Science of Reading. But before we get to that, we talk briefly about the “Queen of Halloween” contest, and Katie and Esther share their favorite books in honor of Author’s Day, which was on November 1st.
Katie: Roald Dahl (She also likes the book, The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls)
Esther: EM Forster, who wrote A Room With a View
And we also have a contest winner to announce!
Congrats to Ryan for guessing our Mystery Woman, Ida B. Wells!
Now all about the Science of Reading.
Today our hosts are speaking with special guest, Penny Ezell. Penny Ezell is an accomplished educator with 23 years of experience who has devoted herself to improving literacy for ALL students. Penny is trained in Brainspring’s Phonic First, Structures, and Level II training. She was a R.I.S.E. trainer for the state of Arkansas focusing on the Science of Reading and helped co-author Brainspring’s Science of Reading training. She was also a local LETRS trainer in Arkansas. She is currently working as an independent literacy consultant with Empowering Writers and is a candidate to become a National Professional Learning Facilitator for LETRS.
After the interview, Katie, Esther, and Penny answer a voicemail question from one of our listeners.
Then Penny shared her favorite author; Andrea Beaty, who wrote Aaron Slater, Illustrator (The Questioneers).
