Phonics and decoding and closely intertwined. Research confirms that strong decoding skills help students sound out unfamiliar words, opening up new levels of reading and learning. In this workshop, participants will explore what explicit, systematic phonics instruction is and looks like in classrooms. Participants will be introduced to the phonics skills progression, learn about the six syllable types, and explore the phonics and word recognition foundational standards. Participants will walk away with a thorough understanding of decodable texts and explore ways to embed these texts into everyday instruction.
