How reading is taught matters. Mississippi is the poorest state in the US, and its 4th graders outperform Virginia’s in every student demographic. And MS vastly outperforms VA for underprivileged children. HT @careads for screenshot.

@karenvaites @careads Do they teach reading with different methods
@karenvaites @careads You’ve got my attention. WOW. Curriculum backed by data & 👏🏻 to MS. Love to see it. So, the right programs allow students to reach their highest potential regardless of their background & the wrong program can set kids with every privilege back.
@karenvaites @careads Isn’t it also true that Mississippi 3rd graders are retained in 3rd grade if they don’t pass the exam or demonstrate mastery? That might also be a factor in this equation, if it is the case.
@karenvaites @tetheredtoed1 @careads Tremendous progress,why refute it? I think they started with Lettrs training ,can you share their journey?
