Hi, and welcome back to the Smarter Literacy Podcast. I'm Corey, and I wanted to pop in for just a minute before we move into a special summer series here on the podcast. Now, over the next several episodes, things are going to feel a little bit different from our regular format. So instead of our usual teaching style episodes, we are sharing an amazing series of literacy chats with members from our Smarter community. Now, these conversations were hosted by Lindsey, and they give you a chance to hear directly from educators, interventionists, SLPs, and school administrators who are doing the work. One of the things that I love most about these conversations is that they remind us that evidence based literacy instruction is not just about programs, routines, or research. Those are so important, of course.
But the real work happens when thoughtful educators take those tools and make intentional decisions for the students in front of them. In these literacy chats, you're gonna hear stories, reflections, and practical takeaways from people who are navigating that work every single day. And my hope is that these conversations will help you feel encouraged, connected, and remind you that you are not doing this work alone. So over the next several weeks, I hope that you enjoy the special summer series of literacy chats, and I'll be back with more tips and strategies type content after the series wraps up. But for now, I'm so excited to share these community conversations with you.
