As schools rethink screen time and students reconnect with analog learning, multi-sensory instruction is proving more important than ever. In this feature, our CEO Eric Olsen demonstrates how intentional handwriting and writing instruction can strengthen neurological development while building confidence in handwriting, phonics, and keyboarding from Pre-K through grade 6. 🍎 Discover how multi-sensory instruction helps students thrive both on and off screen: https://www.lwtears.com/ 🍎 Watch the full feature on Midday Maryland: https://lnkd.in/euhq3i5N

🗣️ Before students become readers and writers, they are speakers and listeners. In this episode, Dr. Terrie Noland explores why oral language is the true foundation of literacy — the “word well” that fuels reading, writing, and comprehension. Learn how purposeful conversation, listening, and language-rich instruction help shape the brain for literacy success from the very start. Tune in to discover practical ways educators can build stronger literacy outcomes through intentional everyday interactions. https://lnkd.in/eNArbymD

📢 We are beyond excited about the launch of our new product: Get Set for School®: Letters & Literacy™. Nearly 40% of children enter kindergarten without the foundational literacy skills they need to succeed. That’s why early support matters. Letters & Literacy builds on the power of emergent writing to help young learners form letters, connect sounds to symbols, and begin expressing their ideas with confidence. Because strong readers and writers start with strong foundations. Read all about it: https://lnkd.in/e2QiePf8
