Started my MOY screening with my Gr 1 class. I’m seeing improvements in all children. Yes, still in the red but I’ve seen results go from 0-24ish with the nonsense word fluency. That’s huge growth! We need to work on fluency all around. Just picked up @timrasinski.bsky.social book to help!

Such a great book study selection! Our school did it last year but this YouTube guide would’ve been a great complement. If you haven’t read the book yet, I highly recommend! @lindsaykemeny.bsky.social lays out 7 essential “moves” in such a clear and practical way 👍 #SOR

We used @lindsaykemeny.bsky.social’s book, 7 Mighty Moves and her Pattan webinar to show us what to do.

Teachers called their groupings “Milk” and “Cookies”. I love that they even shared their notes/summary with each other.

There was also much buzz about your wonderful books too! Our District is mostly using UFLI and your books have helped teachers (including me) figure out how to practically implement SoR in our classes. This was sitting on our table 🙂 during the session.
