In Conversation with Joy Allcock

Monthly structured literacy conversations for educators

Teaching reading and writing is complex work.

You may be wondering:

  • Why are some students still not progressing?
  • What does structured literacy look like for older learners?
  • How do I support students needing Tier 2 or Tier 3 support?
  • Why can students decode in lessons, but struggle in real texts?

These are real classroom questions.

Each month, Joy Allcock leads a live online conversation focused on structured literacy, the science of reading, and practical classroom implementation.

No preparation needed.

Bring a question or simply listen.

Transferring Decoding Strategies to Authentic texts
24 Jun 2026
3:30pm - 4:30pm

Many teachers feel confident supporting decoding within decodable texts, where instruction is highly structured and lessons are already laid out.

But what happens when students move into authentic fiction and non-fiction texts?

In this session, Joy will explore how teachers can support students to transfer decoding knowledge into real reading across the curriculum.

Register for 24 June

Why educators are joining

Our April session brought together educators asking questions about:

  • oral language
  • English learners
  • Tier 2 and Tier 3 support
  • classroom implementation
  • students who are not yet progressing

Real questions. Structured literacy expertise. Practical discussion.

Led by Joy Allcock, M.Ed.

Joy Allcock has worked in structured literacy and speech-to-sound-to-print instruction for more than 20 years.

Her work starts with the spoken language students already bring to the classroom, then explicitly teaches how the sounds of English are represented in print.

This approach connects research and classroom practice to improve outcomes for all learners.
