As a first grade teacher myself, I love this new book which gives practical ways to implement the 7 moves needed for primary teachers to shift thinking and practice from balanced literacy to being based in the research of how students actually learn to read and write. There are so many items for each of the 7 moves that can be implemented immediately in a classroom. Lists of words by phonics skills, planning templates items that could be used in small groups or literacy centers, to name a few of the gems in this book! I highly recommend this book to anyone working with children on foundational reading and writing skills as well as comprehension and vocabulary.

This is hands down the best book on teaching reading I have ever read. It is an absolutely necessary addition to her 7 Mighty Moves book. It gives explicit quick and easy directions along with premade templates you can use in both whole group and small group immediately. She includes sample lesson plan templates as well as tons of sample words lists, organizers, word cards, goal trackers etc. This is definitely a must buy book!

This is a great resource. It's well-organized and easy to follow. This is a good resource to use after reading 7 Mighty Moves. I'm happy with all the classroom suggestions, games, word lists, and reproducibles offered in this resource. I like that I will be able to begin using this immediately. I can't wait to begin implementing in my second grade classroom.

This new reading resource book is an amazing companion to the 7 Mighty Moves book. It takes the research behind the science of reading and shows teachers how to apply it to practice. The templates and explanations are quick and easy to implement. Great job!!👏👏

Grab this resource!! Every page felt like a new gem! I wanted to laminated it all! Perfect for science of reading teachers, small group instruction and more!!

This is a MUST-HAVE resource for Classroom Teachers, Reading Specialists, Literacy Coaches and Administrators who want to make actionable change to support students' literacy development. The explanation of each mighty move and the following resources are so accessible for teachers that they will immediately be able to put them into practice - i'm talking next day practice! 10/10 highly recommend!

So excited to receive my resource book after being on the pre-order list. Being a state literacy specialist, I’m always looking for books and materials to make the life of the teachers easier but still following the best researched-based strategies. I’ve been to several of Lindsay’s trainings and I love her teacher friendly way of presenting and now to provide them with an easy to use book of all of the resources she speaks of is a game changer. I give it an A+!!

This is a must have book for anyone who teaches foundational reading skills. Lindsay brings so much ease and fun into implementing the science of reading and has thought of everything! The book is well organized and chock full of ready to use resources. I receive my book via mail minutes before my tutoring session. I was able to quickly print off a skill-based word list and magic word chain template. She already had the words to use ready to go! I love her sorcery spin on word chains and my student loved the idea of magically turning a “slug” to “rag”! Thanks for the great idea, Lindsay!! As a private tutor and special education resource teacher, I cannot wait to use ALL the resources with my all my students. She just gave me back my prep time!

Love the book but there are 4 pages that are blurred. I am not happy receiving something that was just released and should not have this mistake.
