  • A great voice for excellence in teaching reading

    I’ve been a fan of Anna through her podcast, and now her excellent book, for years. I am an avid podcast consumer, and Anna was built for podcasting. She is genuine, knowledgeable, generous, engaging, and she thinks well on the fly, always asking insightful questions of her guests. It doesn’t hurt that she has a great voice for podcasting as well. I look forward to every episode. Her recent series on the great work in the Cudahy schools gives me hope that we actually can teach all kids to read. ... more

    Anna is INVESTED in being knee deep in the Science of Reading research — and it shows. She’s honestly one of the smartest women I know.

I especially appreciate when she speaks to differing approaches grounded in research, bringing light to the fact that there’s not just one way to teach a concept. This podcast — and her book— are a must for anyone who wants to learn more about the Science of Reading research in ... more

  • My Absolute Favorite

    Anna GETS what it’s like to be a teacher. Her episodes are brief but have the greatest nuggets of information and tips that you can use the SAME DAY to help your students. This podcast was the PERFECT introduction to the Science of Reading. It’s where I, as an 18 year veteran teacher, first learned the basics of SoR. She does not talk down to you, but presents in a way that puts you at ease and excites you to try new things all at once.

    I recommend this to ALL teachers, coaches, administrators... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

[Listen again] Evidence-based practices in teaching writing - with Dr. Steve Graham
Q: What is your view on writing workshops and keeping flexibility in instruction?
Process approaches like writers' workshops have demonstrated positive effects, but they should be used flexibly with ongoing modeling, feedback, and opportunities to revise rather than rigidly following every step; balance with foundational skills and integration across subjects.
[Listen again] Evidence-based practices in teaching writing - with Dr. Steve Graham
Q: How much time should students spend writing each day, and does it vary by grade?
There isn't a universal data-driven answer yet, but guidelines from What Works Clearinghouse have suggested around an hour per day for elementary students, split between teaching and writing; however, real-world practice shows time often varies and must be adapted to context.
[Listen again] Evidence-based practices in teaching writing - with Dr. Steve Graham
Q: What does it mean to use evidence-based practices in teaching writing?
It means using the best available evidence from research to inform teaching while integrating teachers' professional knowledge and the specific needs of their students, rather than blindly following a single study or a rigid protocol.
Structured Literacy Routines - with Dr. Melissa Orkin & Sarah Gannon
Q: Why did you create The Structured Literacy Playbook?
They wanted a cohesive, practical resource that translates research into ready-to-use lessons, aligned to decodable and other texts, helping teachers implement evidence-based literacy practices immediately.
Structured Literacy Routines - with Dr. Melissa Orkin & Sarah Gannon
Q: What is structured literacy and why is it important?
Structured literacy is an explicit, systematic, diagnostic, and cumulative approach to teaching reading that anchors instruction in text and builds from simple to complex skills, ensuring all students have access to reading development.
