Teachers are always learning. Today as I worked through Texas Reading Academies, I learned about the different phonics instructional approaches and how I can incorporate them in my spelling lessons and in students’ authentic writing. #vaughnspringtraining @VaughnElemFISD

Fifth grade frequently uses tools that give immediate feedback to students. The kids love learning how well they did on reading passages and it helps them assess the strengths and areas of growth. @VaughnElemFISD @vaughnspringtraining
