Some kids finish kindergarten already a year behind in reading. And yet we wait until 3rd grade to intervene? That’s not support. That’s delay. What’s something you wish schools did sooner when it comes to reading? #LetsGetLit #DREAMSKC #LiteracyIsLiberation

Reading is not a vibe. It’s not a mood. Not a feeling. It’s a skill—and all skills take time, practice, and guidance. What’s helped your reader push through when it’s tough? #LetsGetLit #DREAMSKC #LiteracyIsLiberation

Let’s address the elephant in the room: Kids can’t read—not because they’re lazy or slow. They haven’t been taught how. Parents: Ask what curriculum your school uses. Ask about teacher training. Structured Literacy is the standard. #LetsGetLit #DREAMSKC #LiteracyIsLiberation

Your child sounds robotic when reading? That’s decoding in action—not a problem. Let fluency come with practice. #LetsGetLit #DREAMSKC #LiteracyIsLiberation

Sight words shouldn’t be memorized like phone numbers. They should be mapped—sound by sound, letter by letter. That’s how the brain learns to read. What’s your biggest challenge with sight words? #LetsGetLit #DREAMSKC #LiteracyIsLiberation
