Literacy Please
You're in the "write" place.
This podcast is for Kindergarten, first, and second grade teachers wanting to gather ideas for writing instruction (with a sprinkle of other literacy topics). With over 20 years of experience and a passion for teaching writing, your host, Stacy, will dig into various topics to bring your writing block to the next level.
As someone who is still in the classroom, Stacy will bring you current information that has been tried and tried again. Along with teaching experience, the host of the Literacy Please podcast has been a writing coach, reading specialist, and has provided professional development in English Language Development.
In each episode, you'll get a real life teacher that doesn't sugarcoat the challenges of teaching writing and has a knack for being a bit too transparent, and you'll find yourself saying, "So it's not just me."
