This week, we are going to have a spring clean. In this episode, I'll share a practice that I think we should reconsider.

I'm not focusing on this practice in the episode because I think it should be forever banished or because I want to criticize past practices. I've used this practice myself, but I'd like to encourage you to consider whether it is having the maximum impact in your classroom.

So, without further ado, grab your feather duster, and let's dive in and discuss News Time or, as some call it, Show and Tell.

Has something in this episode resonated with you? Get in touch!

We have released Spelling Success in Action 1, a catch-up program for phonics, early morphology, and orthographic conventions for years 3 to 8. This program can be used one-on-one, in small groups, or as a whole class and is built on what the evidence tells us is the critical knowledge students need for strong spelling and the type of instruction that makes learning stick.
