OK, so how do I change my avatar picture?

You may have noticed your user profile has an avatar defined. These avatars have been created from the Lexia English product catalogue to maintain the continuity and familiar feel between product and community. 8 Avatars have been created that will be randomly assigned to you as a user the first time you log into the community. To change your avatar, navigate to the “Community” tab and choose “Community” again. You’ll see a dark purple “Choose your Avatar” button on the right side. Once you’ve selected it, you’ll get a chance to learn all about our 8 avatars. Choose the one you’d like to be your profile picture and select “Set Avatar”. Don’t worry - if you change your mind, you can switch avatars anytime you’d like!

Hi Everyone, My name is Michele and I reside in Massachusetts. As I scrolled through the posts, I noticed other colleagues from Massachusetts. I am familiar with Core5, PowerUp, and Lexia English products. I began using Lexia when it was available in floppy disk! While floppy disks may have disappeared, quality Lexia products have not disappeared. I am as pleased with Lexia’s commitment to literacy as I was in the floppy disk era.

Question for the community…. I’m trying to connect the known to the new... Are the events here facilitated by a live trainer? Are sessions here the same as what was once in our National Live Online Calendar? or something different? Where can we find Open Access Recordings ?

Hello educators! 👋 Question: How do you explain structured literacy to parents and colleagues who have misconceptions about the science of reading? What is your science of reading elevator pitch? With so many myths about reading (kids will just learn to pick it up with exposure to books and silent reading 😒), there’s a lot of work we need to do to ensure that everyone is up to speed! I like to recommend that people listen to Sold a Story so that Emily Hanford can do some of the explaining. 😀
