Very ironic how many people are so triggered by the use of the word “threat” in this article….yet have no problem using the word “harm” or phrase “harming children” to continually push a false narrative regarding reading instruction and intervention. @OHEducation @GovMikeDeWine

Reading Legislation: An Alarming Development! Researcher/scholar Dorsey Hammond @LiteracyTalk has written a BRILLIANT article clarifying--with facts & wisdom--how over-relying on phonics & banning language & meaning cues harm students learning to read. literacytalk.info/our-perspectiv…
"Educators are tired of being lied to and lied about. We know what works best is informed teachers armed with a full toolbox and the autonomy to help ALL children reach their full literacy potential." readingrecovery.org/whatisright/
I don’t know who needs to hear this… Teaching a literacy curriculum program like a script, lesson-by-lesson, to all kids without considering their current interests, abilities, and needs: - is not scientific - drains the joy out of learning - leads to inequities
🧵 ~ Someone on Twitter (who I can’t find now) said the most important part of @ehanford ‘s latest episode is that last 10 minutes. I decided to listen. All I could think was “We tried to tell you.”
Living through the most drastic pendulum swing of my 30+ years in early literacy is disheartening, to say the least. So upsetting. Maybe we need to be more careful about who we choose to follow.
Perhaps if those who had the largest voices in pushing SOR policies that don’t reflect all the available research had listened to all the voices who asked them to consider the complexity of literacy acquisition, we wouldn’t be in the position to have to course correct already.
So now the podcast seems to acknowledge that learning to read is more complex than the current SOR movement’s version. Now the podcast brings in implicit learning and the role of wide reading. Now the podcast uses terms like “complex task.”
Now the podcast acknowledges that strict top-down policies (aka legislation by states) don’t really work. Now the podcast mentions the need to course correct in case things don’t work out. Because it’s “messy.”
@DoctorSam7 @FaithBorkowsky @maureen_ruby @NateJoseph19 @LeslieLaud @JennBinis @goyenfoundation @markseidenberg @HollyLanePhD @nellkduke @JoanSedita @BoksnerJudy @paulthomas Why force districts to change what they’re doing if they’re getting good results? I can see asking them to add to what they’re already doing for Ss who may not be doing as well. This seems to be a case of politics rather than evidence-informed decision making.

This week I interviewed Susan Vincent, a well-known educator with an extensive background in teaching literacy, especially early literacy. In the interview, she talked about the highlights of her recent LitCon presentation. She has great insights about what kind of texts to use…
@ssvincent Carefully chosen engaging levelled text, which include high level of redundancy in HFWs & opportunities to apply letter sound knowledge to decoding phonetically regular words (at first) + student created stories inspired by the same texts to be effective with beginning readers.

Thank you, Molly! Fabulous session! Spelling is not just practicing a list of words. Analyzing spelling errors helps us understand how to best support children in their literacy journey. #tcadvancingliteracy

This. 100%. I was pondering this idea this afternoon. This matters for kids…and it matters for adults too. We all want to feel seen and heard.
Cliques divide people into insiders and outsiders. Healthy groups offer everyone a sense of belonging. It's not enough to be polite. It's critical to convey that we value each member's contribution. The foundation of respect is making sure others feel seen and heard.

Absolutely this. This is what’s been missing in education and in life for a long time now. We’re building connections with the wrong things, in the wrong ways. We need to connect with each other and the world around us to move forwards. Childhood, the outdoors and play is key 👇🏽
Learning isn't just about remembering more things, it's about building a relationship with the world you live in. 😊
@trustingreaders @mrbgilson To measure, look at teacher attrition over time as one indicator of the health of a school culture. Are good teachers sticking around, and less effective ones leaving? Also, an environmental walk can offer a lot of data about expectations for teaching and learning.
I’m so glad people are finally having this discussion. I wrote 2 books in the early 2000s about teaching text structure and using structure to help summarize. It has been so helpful for students. Yay!
See our episode about teaching text structure along with gist and summarization. The Literacy View ep. 69 👇 @BoksnerJudy podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the…
