The Science of Reading Formula

This content is long overdue to support teachers so kudos Malia. As an educator & parent of a child with hearing loss I LOVED this episode. The content is spot on and can really elevate your game to reach more students’ academic goals. We are seeing more students with hearing loss in the regular classroom. They can find more success academically with a few extra modifications from their teacher. Bonus points as the modifications will aid all students. AND it really isn’t that difficult. You need some basic awareness and remember your student will be fairly well versed in what works in the classroom if they have utilized classroom accommodations prior to 2nd grade.

I am the parent of 2 early elementary aged students. Outside of homeschooling my oldest for kindergarten (and inevitably and simultaneously pre-k for my youngest 😵‍💫), I am FAR from being an educator of any kind. With a BA in graphic design and visual communication, I have always been passionate about making personalized resources for my kids even if they just want a particular coloring page. Since finding Malia, I have not only been able to add real educational value to my home worksheets and play, I am even able to provide my children’s teachers and classrooms with valuable resources as well! It takes a village, and being an informed and involved parent can and should always involve supporting school learning at home, and understanding the teaching side of things can be a game changer. Plus Malia is so positive and uplifting, it’s hard not to be in a great mood filled with motivation after listening to her podcasts!

I absolutely love this podcast. SoR has unfortunately overwhelmed a lot of teachers, but Malia makes it simple and actionable for teachers to make small changes in their classrooms with big rewards.

Another liberal leftist teacher who spouts off her political rhetoric and doesn’t think about the divide it causes listeners.
