Greatest Hits: The Real Work of Teaching...

Teach Me, Teacher LLC
About this episode

This episode previously aired several years ago. While I am out at a conference, I wanted to bring this one back for those who may have missed it. Enjoy! 

Original blurb: 

In a world where too many educators want the short and easy answers to literacy education, Evan and Laura Robb are here to help us see the value and purpose for putting in the real work and time it takes to learn our craft, and support kids the way they need to be supported.

I couldn't be more excited for this one. 

Evan, Laura, and I discuss what balanced literacy education is, why kids need books and time to read them, and why reading programs are often the worst thing you can sit a struggling child in front of.

As far as I'm concerned, this is one of the most important episodes Teach Me, Teacher has to offer. Do not miss it.

Enjoy!
