Next maths date for the @whatworksseries is June 15 With @BrunoReddyMaths @learnwithmrlee @DaveMorkunas Hosted by @tempyheightsps @Martin_Muffin @rhyssy33
10 years ago I would have sworn that I WAS teaching explicitly. That was before I started using Direct Instruction and learnt what explicit teaching CAN look like. Students are more engagement & actively learning. ALL students should be able to benefit from explicit teaching.

@tetheredtoed1 @MrZachG @karenvaites @C_Hendrick @teacherhead @tombennett71 @lifelonglit @savemathnow @Steplab_co It’s hard to do well but that shouldn’t stand in the way of adjusting teaching in that direction. @DrLSHammond may have some videos for said library. My sense is that many teachers *say* they teach explicitly & then are taken aback by its pace & interactivity when they see it.
Great insights from a brilliant teacher👇

Relevant thought for the day.
If you're advocating against the need for a focus on explicit teaching because students 'often learn DESPITE what the teacher is teaching', then I think you've just proven WHY we need a deeper understanding of explicit instruction.

As someone who taught LEGO class for two years, here's what I observed: 1. Kids that have LEGO at home are quickly bored of it at school, and not necessarily better at them 2. Teaching kids to do anything useful with them (make an arch) requires di, not discovery 🧵

It always makes people mad for some reason when I say it, but it's true. Competence precedes confidence and competence fuels motivation. If you want kids to like what you're teaching, you have to make sure they're actually learning it.

Imagine running a marathon PB by over a minute, 6 months after giving birth. Your time is the 7th fastest Aussie ever and minutes inside the Olympic Qualifying time. But 4 others have run faster in the qualifying period. That’s the story of @JessTrengove and Aus running now

This is the way!
New Zealand’s education revolution ambitions extend beyond reading through a structured literacy approach towards a knowledge-rich curriculum that specifies the content students must learn in each subject, at each grade level (sequentially) 💥👏 theaustralian.com.au/world/new-zeal…
‘Inherent risks’: academics push back against NSW ed dept's explicit instruction drive in the latest ed of EducationHQ. As I sigh & read on I see I am quoted. I wonder whether these academics have read the TEEP recommendations that now must be included in ITE courses?
@jdtdobson I also want to make sure I clarify… student will learn things we don’t teach—even if we are doing great teaching. It’s not “despite” the teacher it’s “plus” the teacher.
@jdtdobson I am definitely not arguing against explicit teaching… in my undergrad class on lesson planning, Archer & Hughes is the only required textbook! We definitely need to consider carefully how we design instruction to maximize effect—which very often means EI but not always or only

@tenaciousKat EDI is actually really hard to do on your own and with nobody and nothing to guide you, when you can't observe others' practice or you don't know what it looks like in your subject!
Back on my deinfluencing constructivism in education game. Direct instruction is "teaching a man to fish." - Here's a rod, here's the bait, here's how to cast and use the reel. Here are some strategies for taking the fish off the hook. Here are some of the best place to fish.
@tetheredtoed1 @MrZachG @karenvaites @C_Hendrick @teacherhead @tombennett71 @lifelonglit @savemathnow @Steplab_co It’s hard to do well but that shouldn’t stand in the way of adjusting teaching in that direction. @DrLSHammond may have some videos for said library.

A 🧵 on explicit instruction, in light of the NSW announcement. 1: I would have not only told you I was teaching explicitly in my first years of teaching, but been highly offended if you had suggested I wasn’t. Spoiler alert: I was giving one explicit instruction 1/
@tenaciousKat @PamelaSnow2 @tserry2504 @NathanielRSwain I hope I didn't say that. A minority of children do seem to learn to read even with low-quality instruction, but most children do need to be taught reading systematically, because it is biologically secondary.
@tenaciousKat @PamelaSnow2 @tserry2504 @NathanielRSwain Just to be clear, if I said that reading was not biologically secondary I mis-spoke: I have never believed this and it's clearly untrue. Extending Snow and Juel (2005), formal teaching of reading is harmful to none, helpful to all, and essential for some.
@NatashaLMercer @markp_bennett @aliceleung Building on the myth of teacher talk, one of the big shocks for me was how often students need to talk/participate in Explicit Instruction. Checking for Understanding every 1-3mins was an eye-opener but an absolute game changer. Also the hinge point prior to independent practice.
Jean Stockard is not a teacher, nor a DI trainer, nor a stooge of the publisher, and despite working at the same university, she never met Engelmann. She is a social scientist who was tasked with analyzing 50 years of research on DI. educationrickshaw.com/2024/04/21/s3e…
