Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Season 2, Ep. 17: Slaying Tier 1 with Brooke Duke, Kimeka Corley, and Kristen Langerman (Mississippi)
Q: What were the biggest shifts that you made in your school?
We moved from a broad, school-wide set of initiatives to a tightly focused, age-specific approach, emphasizing explicit, systematic instruction, strong professional development, and practical, in-class routines that teachers can actually implement day to day.
Season 2, Ep. 15: Write ON! with Enid Bailot
Q: What should leaders protect or stop doing to strengthen literacy implementation with a focus on writing?
Leaders are encouraged to rely on content standards as a guide, promote collaboration with speech-language professionals, and avoid over-reliance on multiple scripted programs; instead, empower teachers to integrate language, reading, and writing within a cohesive literacy block.
Season 2, Ep. 15: Write ON! with Enid Bailot
Q: What is the relationship between Science of Reading and Science of Literacy, and why does language matter so much?
They discuss that the Science of Literacy expands beyond reading to include language, writing, and knowledge-building, emphasizing integration of phonics, syntax, semantics, morphology, and writing.
Season 2, Ep. 15: Write ON! with Enid Bailot
Q: Can you tell the listeners about your background and the spaces you support online?
Enid describes her training in speech-language pathology, her early work in literacy, and her creation of multiple online communities focused on literacy, dyslexia advocacy, and practical resources for teachers and families.
Season 2, Ep. 14: Literacy Implementation Leadership w/Dr. Liz Ritz
Q: If you could wave your magic wand, how would you change what teachers and school leaders are doing across the nation?
Dr. Ritz advocates embracing a Science of Reading framework, deep data-informed practice, and a culture of continuous inquiry; she emphasizes curiosity, learning from experts, desegregating data, and building system-wide coherence to ensure equity and access to high-quality literacy for all students.
