On July 9th, 2018, Redwood Literacy was born. Over the years, we have journeyed with many students and staff through summer camps, full-time school, tutoring sessions, advocacy meetings, community partnerships, school partnerships, professional development, curriculum development, and more. This year, we will celebrate S I X Y E A R S of Redwood! Six years of life-changing stories. We would love to celebrate by hearing from YOU, the people who have made Redwood what it is. If you have a Redwood story, would you share it? Our celebration won’t be the same without you. Share a voice memo of your Redwood Story here: https://lnkd.in/egmSTQe5 or by emailing vanessa@redwoodliteracy.com

REDWOOD TALKS: LIVE CONVERSATIONS WITH MOVERS AND SHAKERS IN THE FIELD OF LITERACY Lynn and Doug Fuchs are internationally renowned researchers who have spent decades enlightening and inspiring educators. Specializing in the development of innovative interventions for struggling learners, the Fuchses have had a vital, transformative influence on the field. The Fuchses are based at Vanderbilt University's Vanderbilt Peabody College in Nashville, where I had the honor of joining them to hear about what’s been exciting lately in their research. We spoke about how the studies they’re conducting right now are going to impact instruction for neurodivergent students — what they’re seeing in the research space that they know, once it’s connected to the classroom, is going to produce meaningful outcomes for kids.
