Huddle | Decoding Skills Cue Cards

Organization: 21st CCLC NTAC
Event Type: Virtual Event
Date: November 17, 2026
Time: 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm (ET)

Join at 1 p.m. for this hands-on Huddle to explore how and when out-of-school time (OST) staff can use the Decoding Skills Cue Cards in daily program routines. Designed for OST leaders, staff, and volunteers without a background in literacy education, this Huddle focuses on real-world application — showing you how to embed multimodal techniques such as finger tapping, letter tiles, and word boxes into homework help, small-group reading activities, and one-on-one support. You’ll learn how to navigate 14 core decoding topics, use prefix and suffix reference charts, and apply key literacy concepts to support both K-3 readers and older students needing targeted reading help. The Huddle will conclude with a 30-minute office hours session.
