ICYMI Episode #9. The system that allowed @LucyCalkins @FountasPinnell and @HeinemannPub to deliver faulty products for decades was fueled by a lack of knowledge about #SOR and how brains learn to read by many colleges of education. @apmreports

“At least 79% of school districts surveyed by @WisconsinDPI in 2021 said they use a curriculum that is either not rated or is negatively rated by EdReports. About 80% of school districts participated in the survey.” Striking stat in @danielle_duclos’s coverage of today’s…
Blindly buying curriculum is what got us here in the first place. 🛑 this is far too important not to get right. Admin and T’s need training in #SOR and implementation.

@LeslieLaud @BoksnerJudy @jillbarshay So, does this mean that buying a “knowledge building” program will be the answer? Mandates to purchase a “curriculum” will fall flat. I am all for building knowledge with complex texts. The rush to BUY the magic box will only make publishers (and influencers) $$$$.
“The study makes it very clear (as have a few others recently) that it is possible to combine reading with social studies and science curriculum in powerful ways that can improve both literacy and content knowledge." @ReadingShanahan hechingerreport.org/proof-points-l…
Thankfully districts that support teachers as experts instead of forcing curriculum with fidelity won’t face this but 🚨🚨🚨 there is no time for novels in bloated basals unless the teacher makes time and that’s a problem.

This is the egregious, slow-burn prequel to #SoldAStory. Everyone, regardless of pedagogical orientation/politics/place should be outraged by the abuse of power & dereliction of basic ethical standards in carrying out & disseminating publicly funded research for the greater good.

Districts have been marketed to. States have been bought with the deep pockets of companies who care only about the $$.

Thx to Senators & Reps who fought to protect our children's rights this legislative session. Bc of them Tx children with #dyslexia can access their rights under IDEA. Pls remember today when you VOTE!!! Special thx to @Toth_4_Texas @TanParkerTX for authoring the bill #txlege
Poor readers often have a comprehension problem *because* of their decoding problems. Students can’t comprehend text they can’t decode. We should not be surprised that this then turns into low motivation to read.

“Why are these kindergarteners essentially spending 30 minutes of their day rolling around on the floor looking at AA books? It doesn’t seem like the best use of their time.” @mandymholl 🔥 What an excellent question about Fountas & Pinnell! #AskFandP
My son didn't get the early effective intervention needed. I reinforced a balanced literacy approach at home with him...I have lots of mom and teacher guilt. This is why I am an advocate so others can start this journey on the right and effective path. #KnowBetterDoBetter
Train your administration and teachers first. They can’t even vote about appropriately aligned curriculum if they don’t understand the #scienceofreading
If de-implementation is not a key component of your alignment to SOR you will fall short and leave teachers and students behind.

Say what you will about decodables taking the joy from reading, BUT... When you watch a child, who has a million obstacles in his life, who said loudly "I can't read" when I met him, and who increased his scores by 110% in 3 months of explicit instruction and intentional…
Bad school culture can make you physically sick. I knew our school was headed in the right direction when my Admin Asst said, "Mr Weaver, I've been here over 20 years; this is the first pay period we haven't had anybody absent." Environment, collegiality, and leadership matter.
