Mark’s responses to the chat from our Reading Meeting with Dr. Nadine Gaab

We hope you are enjoying our Reading Meetings, we certainly are! We especially appreciate the people who join us live and those of you who share your advice and pose interesting questions in the chat. Our goal is for these meetings to be responsive to your needs and so it really helps us to know what our audience is thinking about. After our last meeting on early literacy screening with Dr. Nadine Gaab, Mark took some time to respond to some of the questions and comments that were posted in the chat
