About the Course

Throughout this course, students will listen to six episodes of a Podcast called, “Sold a Story” by journalist Emily Hanford. She brings in multiple interviews from parents, educators, students and even Lucy Calkins, “the reading guru”, to help us better understand the why behind the sudden urgency to change how we teach reading. Teachers will also read a variety of texts to help support the sudden shift and the science behind how this was a flawed system. Through the episodes and articles, teachers will participate in discussions, journal responses,  and create a final product to give to leadership and staff within their buildings.

Upon completion of this course, the student will be able to:

  • Identify the why and how behind the big shift in reading instruction and advocate for this shift amongst colleagues. 
  • Implement their knowledge to plan their reading instruction in their classrooms.
  • Utilize Reading Rockets website to better support their students.

This was an amazing class and one of my favorite courses I've taken through Copilot! I would highly recommend it to any educator, regardless of grade level or content area. The course completely changed the way I think about reading instruction and literacy intervention. As a middle school teacher, I was surprised by how much I learned about how students are taught to read in the elementary grades and how those experiences impact them later on. If you have elementary-aged children or work with struggling readers, this course is definitely worth taking. It is eye-opening, informative, and immediately applicable to the classroom.

Great course! Every teacher should listen to this. The podcast was great but the articles and links to other websites were also very helpful! I would recommend this course.
