Building Phoneme Awareness: Know What Matters the Most


Welcome to the first edition of the digital MESD Early Literacy Network!


As my MESD Early Literacy Role has evolved over the past year and a half, it has become clear that providing access to current research, resources, and professional opportunities around the Science of Reading is in high demand. This digital MESD Early Literacy Network will be delivered to your inbox during the second week of every month. I will provide a brief video PD on a hot Science of Reading Topic, along with SoR resources, local updates and professional opportunities. My hope in creating this digital network is that it will provide a way for you to stay up to date on the Science of Reading without needing to add another meeting to your calendar.
