Listen "Explicit Teaching: The Secret Sauce for Learning Success"
Episode Synopsis
Are you really teaching explicitly—or just scratching the surface? In this episode, Karen and Jenny unpack what explicit instruction looks like in real classrooms, why it's non-negotiable for beginner learners, and how even experienced teachers often miss key elements. They explore the “what” (phonemic awareness, phonics, morphology, comprehension, and more) and the “how” (gradual release, managing cognitive load) that turn good teaching into great teaching. Plus, remember to watch the masterclass video from Anita Archer on vocabulary instruction—guaranteed to change how you teach. 🎥 Watch the video here → www.spectrumeducation.com/meeting-the-needs-sl-podcast
