David and @MJLiben do it again! Grateful for the clear-cut way they bring together their knowledge and experience to offer educators ways to think critically about what we do and how we do it. Once we know better, we do better! 👏👏

“I love literature and books, but everybody doesn’t have to love to read and write – but everybody has a right to learn to read and write.” – Lacy Robinson, educator via @ehanford Episode 4 of Sold a Story is out: features.apmreports.org/sold-a-story/ #earlyliteracy #educationalequity

Reading aloud doesn't teach kids to love reading. It teaches them to love books, stories, learning things, the intimacy of being read to...all that is wonderful, but it's not a love of *reading*. If you want children to love reading, you have to teach them how to do it well.

It takes curiosity to learn. It takes courage to unlearn. Learning requires the humility to admit what you don't know today. Unlearning requires the integrity to admit that you were wrong yesterday. Learning is how you evolve. Unlearning is how you keep up as the world evolves.

About 15 years ago I created the article of the week because my students had a narrow understanding of the world. You have to know stuff to read stuff. I have posted the first AoW of this school year here: kellygallagher.org/article-of-the…
