Melissa & Lori Love Literacy ® | Science of Reading for Teachers Ep. 63: Kindergarten Teacher Reaches 100% Success Using Evidence-Based Practices
Kristin Poppens teaches kindergarten in Iowa and is just learning about the science of reading! In fact, she's applied evidence-based, self-taught practices for less than six months, and her students reached end of year benchmarks with 100% success rate.

Listen in as she shares the shifts she makes to take a science of reading, evidence-based approach to literacy!
