Tammys honest reflections about her teaching journey and her suggestions of small moves within our instruction left me feeling empowered. She reassures readers of the importance of their own data collection and offers valuable suggestions for creating manageable systems that will enable teachers to meet the needs of all students in all areas of instruction.

The Power of Quick and Frequent Practice by Tammy Mulligan is exactly what teachers need right now. Its the book I wish I had when I was a new classroom teacher, and the book I longed for when Id been teaching for a while and felt stuck and in need of a fresh perspective. Its the book I will now recommend to other educators who want to build more targeted, responsive practice opportunities into their routines and/or partner with families in more authentic ways, but dont know where to begin, are frustrated by failed attempts, or feel like there isnt time to do this work in an already overcrowded school day. On every page, in such a clear and conversational way, Tammy shares the experiences of her current classroom and invites each reader to take what she offers and make it their own. This book is pure gold and Im so grateful to Tammy for sharing it with all of us.
