YESSS!!!
Imagine if it was acceptable for doctors to continue with the same protocols, medications, and medical plan that yielded no results after months or years. Would it make sense for the patient to continue following this medical advice?
Just like it does not make sense in the medical world, it does not in the world of reading instruction in support.

It was a joy getting to be with the @BerthaBobcats Operation Read teams today! TWO of our teams tied for questions answered correctly for our school, and received medals. We are so proud of their hard work, dedication, and sportsmanship towards others! @BellevueSchools

Sunday morning musings about the importance of sequencing teacher feedback for students' decoding errors in text reading. Thank you Meadow Center for offering this sequence, thought I would make it into shareable resource. Hope it helps out there! No 3 cueing here!
