In this episode of Literacy in Color, I’m joined by the incredible Lindsay Kemeny, a trusted voice in the Science of Reading community and author of Seven Mighty Moves and Rock Your Literacy Block. Lindsay shares her journey into structured literacy, sparked by her son’s dyslexia diagnosis, and how that led to a complete transformation in her teaching and professional work.We dive into her brand-new book, Rock Your Literacy Block, and explore what it means to build a strong, responsive, and efficient literacy block that aligns with the Science of Reading. Lindsay offers practical strategies, encouragement, and a behind-the-scenes look at how she organizes her day, structures her small groups, and maximizes every minute of instructional time.If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by scheduling, pacing, or finding the “perfect” literacy routine, this conversation is a breath of fresh air. Lindsay reminds us that it’s not about perfection - it’s about progress.Key Takeaways: The inspiration behind Rock Your Literacy Block The must-have components of an effective literacy blockThe art of pacing and maximizing instructional minutesResources Mentioned:Book: Rock Your Literacy Block by Lindsay KemenyBook: Seven Mighty Moves by Lindsay KemenyBook: Seven Mighty Moves Reading Resources by Lindsay KemenyThe Science of Reading in Practice Series (Scholastic)This post may contain affiliate links, which means if you click on a link and make a purchase, I may earn a small commission at no additional cost to you.
