Even after 17 years of teaching, I walked away with new understandings of how to teach phonics! I love Blevin's book!
Michelle Ostler
This is a great course for anyone, new to the profession or an "old hand," who teaches phonics! Wiley Blevins, the author of the text, understands firsthand that educators are constantly looking to refine their practice for best outcomes, and his work will easily benefit yours!
