Episode Details

Welcome to this week's episode of the Structured Literacy Podcast. I am coming to you from Pataway Burnie in gorgeous Tasmania. I'm Jocelyn, and so pleased that you've been able to join me. 

In this episode, I'm going to discuss a question that comes up often in our live events and online forums. That is, how do we know when it's time to begin and then move on from using decodable texts? For a lot of years, decodable texts were very limited to a small number of series. My earliest exposure to them was with the Fitzroy readers, and then a downloadable series from the website Teach the World to Read.

Are your students good readers, but poor spellers? If so, you are not alone. Spelling Success in Action addresses phonics, orthography, and morphology to give students a well-rounded understanding of how our language system works.
