I can’t speak for anyone else, but when I say “read more,” I mean where they’re at. Flat out practice is important, and companies are starting to make truly robust decodable and Hi/Low books for older struggling readers. My favorite is @StoryShares It’s a pretty new company, just 3 years or so. Nearly cried when I was looking at promo materials; that’s how age appropriate the books are - complete curriculum for upper elementary, middle school (my age group) and high school..

And I just nagged for several years, wading through district BS (“we offer grade level curriculum, do we need to come show you how to differentiate?”), to get a fantastic reading program for my students. Specially designed for older struggling readers. You might be interested in looking up @StoryShares It’s epic. Literally. Every lesson has both a grade level objective and a foundational objective. Their library is amazing. My kids ask me to print the books (that’s allowed) so they can take home and keep copies. I’m also a reading specialist. It’s a passion of mine.

The right books the right support = real literacy growth 📚✨ Find the perfect decodable book for you at storyshares.org!!

Exactly, and that applies to intervention as well. Have to give a shout out here to @StoryShares a relatively new company designing their materials to be robust and grade appropriate for struggling older readers. I’m only on page 15 of one of their readers with my SpEd middle schoolers, and we’re already laying out a plot map, comparing characters, and discussing hyperbole and idioms found in the text in real time!

Me! Me! I use @StoryShares in my intervention class (the full program) and start in the middle (Fluency) for my higher but still struggling middle school SpEd readers. Relatively new company, FANTASTIC decidable and hi/lo books - robust and age appropriate for struggling readers. EPIC materials. I just started after Thanksgiving.

“It's an Absolute Wasteland” Appreciate @educationweek spotlight. Literacy support for 6-12 students & teachers is too often overlooked. @Storyshares edweek.org/teaching-learning…

I don’t think that is the problem- it’s the crazy Common Core State Standards. Reading instruction fades out in the 3rd-5th grades and districts march forward with non-readers, passing them along, because reading instruction is not “grade level curriculum.” We are supposed to “differentiate instruction.” No. I made noise until my principal let me do an intervention English period, and bought a great program designed for older readers. @StoryShares
