"Research results and teaching practice indicate that the best instruction is explicit, systematic, sequential, active, and engage. Effective teaching emphasizes discovery and understanding, and is aided by frequent opportunities to practice spelling, writing, and reading skills in meaningful contexts." ~Brady & Moats
