Reproducible, research-based activities to help K-5 students learn phonics and spelling, fast
Educators and parents know we are facing a literacy crisis, but few know what to about it. Droppin' Knowledge on Phonics is an action-oriented guide written by experienced educators to bridge the gap between research and practice. Drawing on the latest evidence on how K-8 students learn best, Heidi Martin and Adam Martin have developed reproducible activities, games, and practical tips to bolster phonics and spelling curricula. All the books in the Droppin' Knowledge series contain ready-to-go resources that you can use within your existing curriculum. These activities are perfect as warm-ups, homework, extra credit assignments, or in-class additions to your lesson plans. Deepen learners' understanding of important phonics and spelling concepts and give them quick wins to increase confidence and activate prior learning.
Many Science of Reading books go into too much detail on the research background of teaching. For parent educators and teachers, Droppin' Knowledge on Phonics offers a more accessible, immediately useful resource. With this book, you can teach students to read and help struggling readers, without a lot of background reading or ramp-up time.
