Lyn Stone
Speaking and Spelling: Two Different Beasts
That speaking and spelling are different things. That speaking is a great starting point for literacy development, but can't be the end point. Ideas for powerful questions when studying words.
Trick or Treat Words
Heightened confidence to look at irregular words as treats rather than tricks. Techniques to help children remember words better. A deeper understanding of English orthography.
Lyn is an educational linguist, author, and CEO of Lifelong Literacy: an education coaching and training organisation.
Her goal is to help educators awaken linguistic curiosity in their students using creative, engaging tools and strategies that are based upon scientific consensus as to what constitutes best practice.
Lyn creates research-informed professional development seminars, both online and face to face, for teachers and other education professionals. She directs a team of specialist practitioners to deliver high quality literacy intervention at Tiers 2 and 3, and a team of school coaches to deliver the best possible Tier 1 literacy instruction.
Her occasional podcast about the lives of prominent education professionals, Loves, Hates and Passions, can be found on Spotify.
Her three books, Spelling for Life, Language for Life and Reading for Life continue to attract worldwide acclaim and enjoy places on various bestseller lists.
