Article Discussed:https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/lit.12368

🚨 Real Talk: Decodables Are Everywhere—But Are We Using Them Right?

Districts are buying them. Teachers are assigning them. Publishers are hyping them. But beneath the buzz, the real question is: Are decodables making a difference—or are we just following a script?

In this episode,  we go beyond the phonics fanfare to ask the hard questions:

• Are we over-relying on decodables at the expense of comprehension?
• What makes a decodable text actually effective?
• Are we seeing real gains—or just following mandates?
• 
  

🔥 Inside This Episode:

• What the research actually says about d

Takeaway Tuesday LIVE! (Recap of 122)

Hosts: Faith Borkowsky & Judy Boksner
Guests: Viewers + Live Q&A with Trina Spencer & Doug Petersen
📺 Watch the Replay: YouTube Link:https://youtu.be/fl8goSw6THE?si=Cwt5fIEiJxHPlet7

💡 What’s Inside:
This Takeaway Tuesday episode revisits key ideas from Episode 122, where we tackled the false debate between strategy instruction and knowledge building. Listeners joined us live to share their biggest takeaways—and then we turned it over to two literacy legends:
Dr. Trina Spencer – https://absc.ku.edu/Trina-Spencer
Dr. Doug Petersen – https://www.childlanguagespecialist.org/welcome-douglas-bryan-petersen/
Together, we dug into:
Why BOTH strategy & knowledge matter
Real classroom applications (beyond theory)
The harm of sticking to one “camp”
How oral language and writing fit into the big picture
🔥 Soundbites:
“It’s not about picking sides—it’s about serving ki

This episode might challenge everything you once believed! 

In this evidence-grounded episode, we kick off with Jill Barshay’s March 2025 Hechinger Report deep-dive—“Proof Points: Reading Comprehension in the Classroom” (read it here)—which shows teachers spend under 25 percent of their reading block on genuine comprehension work and almost zero time on text-based talk.

Doug Petersen and Trina Spencer—classroom teachers turned education scientists and founders of Language Dynamics Group—use those “proof points” as a launchpad to share why they walked away from one-size-fits-none interventions and built something better:

❤️ Their evidence-first origin: witnessing multilingual and economically diverse learners get lost in decoding drills led them to found tools (CUBED, PEARL, DYMOND, Story Champs®) rooted in solid research evidence—and designed to be Implementation Ready, not extra paperwork.

The powerful influence of early language on later reading suggests that language intervention programs combining phonological, morphological and semantic activities may help to reduce the incidence of reading problems.
