Reading Success in Action – Decoding 2 – Jocelyn Seamer

When making the shift to a systematic, explicit approach to teaching reading, it can be challenging to know how to arrange content in a way that supports the learning of every child in your class.  The Reading Success in Action Lesson 2 sequence is designed to take the guess work out of making instructional decisions in teaching the first half of the complex code.  Don’t spend hours agonizing over what, when and how to teach decoding.  Follow the sequence and give your mental energy to supporting the students in your care.
