DPI sends email defending LLI and Reading Recovery as OK at a WI school. THESE CURRICULUM DON’T HAVE A PHONICS SCOPE AND SEQUENCE. @WisconsinDPI again what curriculum are outlawed because the law says you can’t buy programs with MSV. Lead don’t mislead!
A class-action lawsuit was filed today in Massachusetts against the publisher, Heinemann, its top authors Lucy Calkins, Irene Fountas and Gay Su Pinnell, and Columbia University. apmreports.org/story/2024/12/…
What’s a better use of time? Practicing being a better teacher with existing resources or searching for resources?
Why are drills standard in sports but “joy killing malpractice” in the classroom?
What a ridiculous statement.
First and last letter knowledge, can you imagine how much guessing we see and it gets worse year after year till they crumble! So perplexing that this method went viral!

@jdtdobson @HelenProulx2 @readteach77 @lovethatsmile @themetresgained @londonjohn9 @AEUVictoria Prof Catherine Snow (@Harvard,) et al. summed it up back in 1999: use decoding/word recognition to get the word off the page & context if its meaning is still unclear. Three-cueing opts for the opposite direction & then tutors have to undo an unhealthy reliance on pics etc.
”When teachers poo poo decodable readers I remind them that they are not for them, they can read. Rather, they are for their students who are learning to read and they serve an important purpose: to enable students to practice decoding and reach early automaticity with the code”
We can finally talk about this!? 💣🔥

”Children are prone to guessing because it’s quicker and easier than the hard work of decoding...Children need no encouragement to guess. If they are encouraged, they absolutely will, but they will do so at the expense of fostering the reading habits..'' 1/2
Are these educational beliefs familiar to you? They were once familiar to, and believed by, @MrZachG. “I’m not a contrarian. I believed what I was told” in teacher preparation. At @researchED_US:
“We don’t ask surgeons to design and develop their own instrumentation, why would we ask elementary classroom teachers to design and develop their own instructional materials for reading, writing, math, social studies, and science?” -Wisconsin educator
“We don’t ask surgeons to design and develop their own instrumentation, why would we ask elementary classroom teachers to design and develop their own instructional materials for reading, writing, math, social studies, and science?” -Wisconsin educator
Good riddance.
I love how none of us would even consider hiring a 77- or 81-year-old, but it somehow makes sense when talking about the most powerful job on the planet?
This sounds like a must-listen.
Poverty matters, but it doesn't mean kids can't learn to read. We must avoid what former President Bush called "The soft bigotry of low expectations". youtu.be/9gjMHTHFOI4
