Listen "Everything is literacy, with Susan Lambert, Ed.D."
Episode Synopsis
In this crossover episode Susan Lambert joins host Ana Torres and Classroom Insider Eric Cross from sister podcast, Beyond My Years. Together, the trio dive into the idea that all educators contribute to—and thus must invest in—student literacy development, regardless of the content they teach. Throughout the conversation, they discuss how all teachers are literacy teachers, offer four simple tips for developing academic language in any classroom, and explore why Susan still doesn't feel like a "seasoned educator" despite over 30 years in education. Finally, Ana and Eric discuss what they learned and Eric shares his top three takeaways from Susan.Show notes:Subscribe to Beyond My Years https://at.amplify.com/bmyAccess free, high-quality resources at our brand new, companion professional learning page: http://amplify.com/science-of-reading/professional-learning Connect with:Susan Lambert: https://www.linkedin.com/in/susan-lambert-edd-b1512761/Ana Torres: https://www.linkedin.com/in/anayansi-ana-torres-m-ed-26a10654/Eric Cross: https://www.ericcross.org/ Resources:Science of Reading: A New Teacher’s GuideScarborough’s Reading RopeThe Knowledge Gap by Natalie WexlerJoin our community Facebook Group: www.facebook.com/groups/scienceofreadingFollow us on Instagram @amplify.education Quotes: “Reading and writing and understanding language is not just an English language arts teacher's responsibility. It's the responsibility of every educator to communicate their discipline and the words and the concepts from their discipline to their students.” —Susan Lambert“[The Science of Reading movement] is not being led by one person or another person. … I'm part of a greater community, and to know that I play a certain role or part in that community actually gives me a lot of inspiration on days when it's really, really hard.” —Susan Lambert“Any teacher in a classroom, no matter what content area they teach, is teaching something about language.” —Susan Lambert“The more that we can sharpen our tools and our skillset to be those teachers of literacy, the faster we're going to see improvements in learning in our classrooms. They're not two separate things.” —Eric Cross
