Every parent and teacher should be required to read these two books. I think these two important and essential books should be at the top of every bestseller list. I highly recommend them to everyone. One lesson from both the books:
Teaching Oral Reading Fluency to Older Students | Shanahan on Literacy… opening line of this made me laugh out loud @ReadingShanahan @TimRasinski1 😆😆😆 shanahanonliteracy.com/blog/teaching-…

“Books with LGBTQ themes restricted by school board” - the best thing to do to fight against book banning, is to stand up with authors and publishers and shout loudly that restricting or removing access to books is, ironically, what harms children. thestar.com/entertainment/…
What happens when young people actually read “disturbing” books? Worthy read. Thanks, Donna Santman. tcpress.com/blog/young-peo….
There is no #OntEd “Grade 6 Science textbook” or “Grade 4 Social Studies textbook”. Everything your child is learning in public elementary school was likely created, found, or purchased by their teacher. And if they’re in French Immersion, it was also translated by their teacher.
Kids cycle through periods of attention & inattention. According to neurologist & classroom teacher @judywillis, concentrated study of “20-30 minutes for middle & high school students calls for a 3- to 5-minute break.” 🧵Adapted from this article: edut.to/3R3UTAb 1/12
🤩 Acadience now has free Grade 7/8 Reading Assessment materials! This is quite different from their assessments up to Grade 6 (and very different from DIBELS which we’ve been using because their 7/8 was free). Digging into all the details now! 📖

As someone who taught reading intervention at middle school in a school that focused on a phonics-centric Science of Reading approach, here are a few concerns I see with this new trend and how it might be applied to older students: 1. I worry that we will focus so much on skill…

With new printing and cursive curriculum expectations, there are lots of tweets and news articles decrying this as a return to an old school, useless practice. Explicit instruction in handwriting, though, remains a critical part of effective literacy instruction even now.
I’ve connected B2 ON Language continuum w/the UFLI scope and sequence. (Blue - kindie, green - gr1, yellow - gr2). Anyone else do this yet? (Review concepts were a given, I just didn’t highlight) I’d love to chat to see if you’ve found the same or if I should make some changes.
“Anyone who reads the news knows the costs of extreme weather are on the rise. Yet Ford’s first budget cuts funding for flood management by 48% and forest firefighting by 67%. That’s a failure to plan for climate change” -GPO gpo.ca/2019/04/16/pro…

Never thought I'd be here but I'm really becoming anti-technology when it comes to schools. Bring back pens, pencils, and notebooks, especially for younger students. The pros just do not outweigh the cons for me.

Reading fiction has small but meaningful benefits for empathy. 70 experiments: concern for and understanding of others grow more through reading novels than watching shows and movies. Immersion in words about imaginary worlds can help us see realities beyond our own.
15 years ago I thought paperless classrooms were the future. Now I think they're an overhyped edtech dystopia. Students need tactile reading and writing experiences, which research shows leads to deeper, more sustained learning. #bfc530

People will continue to scream that educators and nurses are greedy to want wage increases beyond 1%, but seem to be okay with CEOs making 246 times the salary of their average worker. The rich conservative donors like it when the peasants fight each other for their scraps.
