Listen "8.1 New Season, New Stories"
Episode Synopsis
Shannon and Mary kick off the new season with reflections on how far the podcast has come, from family anecdotes to stories of former students thriving—like Rigby, a once-struggling reader now headed to college. They share practical tips for using Canva to teach morphology, highlight successes from their summer tutoring, and discuss balancing work, rest, and family life. Additionally, they unveil exciting plans to feature more teacher voices in the show through their bonus episodes, available to all subscribers.RESOURCES MENTIONED DURING THE EPISODE:Mary's husband's band Cherokee Ave ProjectGoogle form for teacher guestsMarie Foley Visuals Morphology classGeodes decodablesHandwriting Without TearsBookwormsAmplify CKLABlossom & RootBuy us a coffeeBonus Episodes access through your podcast appBonus episodes access through PatreonFree Rubrics Guide created by usFinding Good Books Guide created by usSupport the showGet Literacy Support through our Patreon
