S3 E2: Reading Science Surprises with Anna Geiger

This week, Kate welcomes fellow podcaster Anna Geiger from The Measured Mom. As two teachers who have shifted from balanced literacy to structured literacy, this episode is filled with candid discussion as Kate and Anna highlight the biggest surprises they encountered along the way!

Anna is the CEO of The Measured Mom, host of Triple R Teaching, and the author of the soon-to-be released book, Reach All Readers: Using the Science of Reading to Transform Your Literacy Instruction.

Show Notes:

• Emily Hanford's reporting, including her article At a Loss for Words, was key to Anna's structured literacy journey. Catch Emily's season 2 episode of Reading Road Trip, too!
• Dr. Mark Seidenberg's book, Language at the Speed of Sight, provides comprehensive insight into how students learn to read, challenging instructional practices that aren't aligned with this research
• Ready for the tables to be turned? Anna interviewed Kate on Triple R Teaching with an episode focusing on structured literacy in kindergarten
