My monthly news for January A PDF with embedded links. This is my 17th edition 🎉 tr.ee/XSsXpIXoeK

As we step into 2025, my wish is simple: to empower teachers, parents, and students with the tools and knowledge to create a brighter future for all learners. No shame, no blame—just a shared commitment to growth, understanding, and action on this learning journey.

"One of the greatest drivers for me to write this book was the chance to share the stories of schools transforming the lives of teachers and students alike using the science of learning"

This talk is definitely worth your time (I was lucky enough to be there for it in person)!

I had the privilege of presenting to all the resource teachers at my school board. I shared the reason I was standing before them: my son, who is dyslexic. I spoke about our journey—my shift from balanced literacy to structured literacy—and my mission to raise awareness #Dyslexia #sor
